RE: brake noise?!?
ORIGINAL: ceekay84
When i gently tap on the brakes at slow speeds (from 5mph to 0) like in front of a speed bump or in a traffic jam or anywhere else as a matter of fact, I can hear a grinding noise coming from the wheels dept... Could it be the brake pads?? I just got new brake pads!!! The noise ONLY becomes evident from the right side when I tap the brake pedal and only at slow speeds =(When I tap the brakes gently without stopping the car, the noise becomes continuous as if it's cycling. Anyone know why this is happening?!?!

My only guess is to check and see if the ware indicator didn't get bent on the pads during install.
Well, whatever, its better than "are you sure your pads arnt in backwards?? "

Brake pad glazing is caused when the brake pad friction material is overheated.
This results in crystallized friction material on the pad surface and the brake disc.
Typical symptoms of glazed brake pads include: Poor stopping performance, vibration or brake judder, and cracks or fissures in the brake pad material.
Pad glazing is typically caused by operating the brake pads at a temperature above the specified temperature range of the friction material or not properly following the 'Bedding-in' instructions for the brake pads. Always follow the manufacturers brake pad bedding-in instructions and use a brake pad that has a temperature range that is sufficient for its intended use
