    By the mention of "Rapide", parang alam ko na kung bakit maingay. :D

    Anyway, figure out which wheel is making the noise and inspect the brake pads. Don't base conclusions as to the condition of your brakes by just looking at the outer brake pad. Remove a couple of screws and slide out the brake caliper so you can get a good look at the inner brake pad.

    You may also want to put copper grease on the BACK SIDE of the brake pads so it will dampen any noise caused by vibration (oscillations) when the brakes are applied.

    MAraming matinong shop diyan sa Las Pinas... look for a shop thats near to a Machine Shop. Madali lang naman magpalit ng Pads eh.

    The first thing you need to do is - buy the parts first.

    But the mechanics needs to remove your disk rotors if it needs to be refaced in a machines shop... this may take half a days work. About 2 hours in the machines shop, removing, and replacing, repacking the bearings and replacing the pads maybe about 2 hours also.

    There's a shop called GLYCO - near Cecilles or BF Resort... they also have mechanics there - I think. It's actually an easy thing to fix. Medyo madumi lang - If I am only free - I will gladly volunteer to fix that myself. :-)

    Some brake pads have what you call wear indicator, some indicator naman is nasa Rotor na, wala sa pads, pag naubos na pads mo sasayad na iyan sa rotor at mag isisqueak, the squeak will remind you na pauboas na ang pads and needs to be replace




    Now kung after mag change ka nang brake pads na bago at nag squeak pa din, maaring yung rotor mo is upod na. Kaya pag nag brake ka iingay na dahil sa tiny vibration because of gap created by wear on your rotor and pads

    make sure lang you buy OEM or other brands na mahusay din otherwise sayang lang papalit.

    sabi ng mechanic ko meron daw mahinang klaseng pads kaya maingay. ok daw

    bendix.
