BRAKE Guru's please advise me!!!!!!!!!!
hi guys,
well now the car is 2.5 years old and i got the brakes replaced. Went with OEM just cause i know i'm not going to be keeping it that much longer.
Anyways what i need help with is this:
When i Brake softly to gradual stop, everything is fine and the brakes are clean and quiet, the problem is when i have brake a little harder.
my front right brake makes a wierd noise as iff the brake is stoping but making the noise every end of rotation. What i mean is if the rotor is spinning in the brake, it seems as if the top of the rotor is mis aligned
i know the brakes need to be broken in, but its just wierd when the left side is fine and doesn't make a noise but the right does.
I know the rotor isn't bent or anything, but there a chance that when they reinstalled everything, they torqued one bolt to much more then the others causing a misalignment?
help!

Sang,
It's not clear to me what exactly you are experiencing. Are you hearing a squealing metal on metal sound? Is it a grinding noise? Are you feeling any vibrations through the steering wheel or through the brake pedal?
