squeaking sound only when depress the brake pedal.

**rapeez** · September 10th, 2003 03:26 PM

hey! tsikot guys, i'm newbie here. ask ko lang what would be the problem about squeaking break. as i mentioned only when i depress the brake pedal. i've tried to change my front brake pads a week ago but still can hear the sound. really annoying. actually even b4 changing the front brake pads i can hear the pissing sound i assumed baka manipis na yung brake pad sa harap so i did changed it but still der. can't say on rear brake pads coz it's laso new. am sure nasa harap nanggagaling yung squeaking sound.

what would be the culprit? need your advise peeps.

salamat po and you've got a nice site here.

mabuhay taga tsikot!!!!!

Baka po sa brake repair kit may tagas?

ungas, ano yung brake repair kit. pardon my ignorance.

Sa disc brakes eto yung goma na pumipigil ng brake fluids para di mabasa ang exposed side ng piston sa disc pads. Sa drums naman, ang brake repair kit ay ang goma na nasa makabilang gilid ng brake cylinder. Kung sira ito tatagas ang brake fluids papunta sa contact area ng brake pads/shoe that could cause squeaking sounds while braking.

baka naman mahigpit lang ang pagkakakabit.

UNGAS, i will bring my unit to shell where it was changed my disc pad. around what cost kya nito in case may tagas nga yung brake repair kit? or kasama pa ba sa warranty since last week lang kinabit?

HAPPY GIL, cge ipa-check ko narin bka one cause din yun ng squeaks.

Baka di na i-acknowledge yung warranty nyan kung last week pa ginawa. Mura lang mga repair kits ranging from 300-1400 per set.

Kung suspect mo front discs ang mag ingay, self-adjusting ang caliper brakes. There's no way to adjust it except for the extra shims on the pads that came with it. Sa likod madali lang sikipan or luwagan ang adjuster ng drum brakes.

are the rotors still fine? minsan nag co-cause den ng ingay yan. lalo na kung may alon alon na yan.

**rapeez** · September 11th, 2003 05:18 PM

ungas, that means paluwagan ko yung caliper? or really buy repair kit? cenya na po dami tanong.

spazzkid, rotors was replaced (OEM) last dec. 2002.

Kung papayag ka na magbayad ulit para sa labor, total babaklasin din naman yung caliper set, para matanggal ang extra shims. Mas maigi pang bumili ka na at papalitan mo na tuloy yung brake repair kits. Para iwas abala sa susunod.

Kung kasama naman ang labor pati sa likod i-adjust ng tama at pantay. Kung san mas makapal ang brake shoe dun hihigpitan, at luwagan ng kaunti sa mas manipis. Sabay check sa goma ng brake cylinder kung may tagas na fluid sa naka brake drums ang likod.

Maninibago ka sa umpisa, all your brakes will have to set in first for a few kilometers. Tignan tuloy kung may kabig sa ginawang adjustments.

O nga pala naalala ko, don't forget to re-adjust your hand brakes kung kasama sa rear brake system ito. 5-7 clicks should be fine.

HTH :D
