Front Brake

[mcrowell]

My front brake makes some rubbing noise how much noise if any do the front brakes make?

What kind of noise? During what kind of operation?

Just little squeaky noises? Prolonged squealing? Grinding sounds?

My front brakes (with plenty of meat on the pads) make soft occasional squeaking noises when braking at low speeds, this is normal.

If it makes a grinding noise (metal on metal) when you brake your pads are prolly shot. If so replace them before they jack up your rotors. Look down from the top of the calipers and see how thick they are.

I wouldnt get too worked up about a little squeal once in a while as long as it isnt dragging. I live next to a steel plant so the steel dust gets all over EVERYTHING including down in my brakes, so mine are always a little loud.
