Great info, my BMW attracts surface rust like crazy on the rotors, I don't live near the beach or big city and this is the first car that does this, when I back out in the morning especially after rain and the car sets for a few days it sounds like rubbing bare metal until I drive for a few, any ideas what causes the rust to appear all the time and or how I can get rid of it, ty

[@JonnyDIY]

That's completely normal to occur on most all cars that happens. Nothing to worry about 👍 It's just a very light surface rust because the metal cant be coated or covered on the braking surface

[@tomw.4255]

My issue was my two front rotors/discs were getting piping hot. Turns out the air vents in the rotors were filled with metal debris and corrosion and were not functioning properly. Any way to prevent that from happening?

My brakes make a funny creaking on rotation when braking (wheel straight) after having a tire change. My theory is the shield after a bit of googling as brakes are in good condition. Ill find out on Tues... thanks for the vid!

[@JonnyDIY]

You're welcome, good luck hope you figure it out 👍

[@ct7407]

This is an interesting video because I've never seen one that doesn't require taking the whole caliper off. Didn't know the pads can just pop out like that.

[@JonnyDIY]

yes it's actually pretty common to be able to change pads like that 👍

[@shrews12001]

When i got new pads and rotors it immediately was squealing and grinding. The grinding got really nasty sounding for a bit but now its just a consistent oscilating squealing sound, when i start out very slowly from a stop i can hear a drawn out squeal. I suspect the clip hardware may not be correct and it's caused the noise but I'm not sure.

[@JonnyDIY]

@@shrews12001 yes definitely sounds like somethings not right if it did that from since when you had the rotors and pads replaced. I would take off wheels and inspect pads rotors and hardware. Clips could be scraping or the squealer on the pad bent

[@EndgameCampers]

Great video as usual Jonny.

[@JonnyDIY]

Thanks Dave! 🙌👍

[@markwilliams5521]

I’ve got a great trick? . I own a 03 Camry LE and I just did a front brake job on it back last year and I’ve noticed a gradual grind noise on the front passenger side when I hit the brakes and it sounds like metal to metal. So I take it apart and the pads are still smooth and the rotor is smooth. They are not oem pads either. It’s only the front passenger side. I even washed the caliper off when I removed it from the car. Still makes the same noise

[@JonnyDIY]

Could just be the pads or rotors. Sometimes they make a lot of noise no matter what

[@markwilliams5521]

Then why would the driver side not make the same noise?

[@markwilliams5521]

Found out both rotors are out of factory specifications so I’m having to replace both of them.

[@JonnyDIY]

@@markwilliams5521 awesome, glad you figured it out 👍

[@mxpants4884]

If your brake rotor isn't completely flat, or if the surface of the hub isn't completely flat, the resulting run-out will eventually wear the rotors into being warped. We're talking 0.003in of tolerance. I've also redone brakes that got noisy because one clip was bent. I accidentally pushed the caliper down against the same clip when redoing the brakes so I suspect that was how it got messed up... at the factory.

[@litpubgm124]

This is even crazier I’m working my on 2005 tundra I’ll be back to watch this video my mechanic didn’t do good work I hear some scraping on the brakes

[@JonnyDIY]

@@benitohernandez357 double check work, try and pinpoint which one is making noise. Check rotors for wear if didn't replace them, possible the new pads are just seating to the old rotors

[@BDUFFY404]

What About the high pitched squealing sound when braking after getting brand new brakes and rotors ⁉️

[@JonnyDIY]

That could just be new pads and rotors breaking in and mating to eachother. If doesn't go away in a couple weeks of normal driving take back to shop and see if they can figure out. Should just be the news pads and rotors though 👍

[@BEEZYS-WORLD]

Wheel baring

[@EndgameCampers]

I might look into getting that scan tool

[@JonnyDIY]

Yeah for the cost it does a lot. Scan tools have come down in price a lot in recent years

[@Andrew-he9qz]

WAIT I don’t have caliper pins but my pads are compressed and grinding. What do I grease to make things move smoothly

[@JonnyDIY]

New pads? Have you inspected them? Check rotors for wear too

[@ellisfletcher3491]

Mine seems to do it when i get to 60 mph and after a few minutes it starts then goes away when pressing the brake??

[@JonnyDIY]

I would take suspected brake noise wheel off and check it out, can run car on jackstands carefully and try and replicate as well if cant find cause with just inspecting. Sounds like brakes could be dragging possibly

[@2chey383]

i changed my brake pads and rotors today, the brand new brake pads are ceramic, but now when i brake from 80km/h i hear a whistling wind noise from the brakes but then it goes away when i drop the speed and brake, not sure what this is. please help!

[@JonnyDIY]

@@2chey383 if you did everything correctly it should be fine. It can take a bit of time for the pads and rotors to mate to eachother and theyll make more noise than normal.

[@oaguirre013]

I got new pads and rotors up front and now there is a slight very faint sandpaper sound when reversing at very slow speeds. Full ceramic pads. Any clues as to what it may be? No sounds or weird feeling on the pedal when going forward and braking.

[@JonnyDIY]

@@oaguirre013 thats pretty common for new pads to do that, I'd give some time for them to mate up to eachother 👍

[@L._._]

Question ! I have an intermittent metal shhhhhhh/rolling/brushing metal kinda noise on my front left tire… it comes and goes randomly and then stops when I brake. Any idea what that is? I was told I need new brake pads soon a while back. Is that just that?

[@JonnyDIY]

@@L._._ yes most likely the pads or hardware. If that was a while ago may be time to have them changed and inspected for any other parts may need replacing such as rotors

[@L._._]

@@JonnyDIY thank you! I checked the pads they look thick but kinda dried out looking. Rotor is smooth but some rust .. I have also been driving in the dirt and dust recently could that have caused the noise ? The edges of the rotors do look rusty but not the plates… sry that’s prob not the right terminology at all 😂

[@JonnyDIY]

@@L._._ hmm search "brake pads new vs old" and make sure you were looking at the pad part and not backing plate. Rotors usually rusty on edges so thats normal. Sometimes brakes will make noise wearing away surface rust. Does the problem ever go away after driving a while or always there? Dust and dirt probably not.

[@L._._]

@@JonnyDIY so it’s definitely the pad part but the pad and backing are both orange with rust 😂 the noise comes and goes randomly , but when it starts it stops when I brake. I wish I could attach a photo lol

[@L._._]

@@JonnyDIY is there some way to email a photo ? I’ll venmo you a coffee tip for your trouble

[@ChristopherArmstead-h3f]

New rotors and breaks on my 2019 chevy silverado custom in February...still hear noise when it's been sitting over night but don't hear nothing after I start my day🤔🤔🤔🤔

[@JonnyDIY]

@@ChristopherArmstead-h3f that's usually just from surface rust forming overnight or if sits a few days or so. Once you drive and use breaks it comes right off 👍

[@michaelwonch3513]

So I just put a new pads and rotor on my back right wheel and when I’m driving I hear a squeal sound what do I do

[@JonnyDIY]

@@michaelwonch3513 take wheel off and double check work. It may just be new pads seating to rotor or it may be something rubbing like a pad clip or something else. Jack up wheel and turn it to help pinpoint sound

[@dondc2827]

My front driver side is making a scraping noise when I make a right turn what can it be

[@JonnyDIY]

@@dondc2827 I would inspect the brakes and suspension as well as the wheel bearings. A lot of time the wheel bearings will start making noise when turning when they start going bad. But check tie rods and ball joints too

[@dondc2827]

@JonnyDIY thanks I'll do that

[@kutayovez8390]

[@coolkid16100]

What if your brake’s & rotors are new and they are grinding noise

[@JonnyDIY]

Sometimes they grind a little when theyre brand new til the pada seat to the rotors. Shouldnt be super loud though just kind of quiet scraping. Sometimes they just make noise regardless, some pads are a lot louder than others too

[@cecilsabourin9462]

Lubed the slide pins ? Stopped the grinding sound.

[@robertc6850]

I have a problem with a noise right before i come to a stop. Otherwise, my brakes seem totally fine. Do you think this noise is coming from my brakes or something else?

[@JonnyDIY]

@@robertc6850 hard to say, what kind of noise

[@robertc6850]

@JonnyDIY it's sounds like a "eeeerrrggghhhgrakatralala"... just playing haha. Not sure how to describe it... but it only occurs for a split second right before coming to a stop... but I really don't think that it's my brakes. Then again, I'm not sure... appriciate the reply.

[@JonnyDIY]

@@robertc6850 probably just brake pads making noise. Sometimes they make noise no matter what

[@JonnyDIY]

@@robertc6850 but if its a new issue may be worth inspecting suspected wheel

[@robertc6850]

@JonnyDIY it's an issue that keeps getting worse and worse on a 5 year old vehicle. Now, I did get my brakes inspected a year ago when the noise initially started, but I was told the brakes are good and that the pads are still in great condition, so i just continued driving like everything was fine. However, it is getting worse, and I really think I need to troubleshoot the problem.

[@kevinbroadway5398]

why did you not grease those front slide pins

[@JonnyDIY]

The open ones like that don't need greasing just cleaning. This style ones you want to grease kzbin.info/www/bejne/gF6wdIabft5lj5Isi=ZohsGe9WWTuDdPvN

[@coooolsmurffff]

My rear tire makes a intermittent grinding noise as the wheel is turning. Initially thought it was the brakes and rotors as they are over due for a change. Changed both of them. The pads were pretty snug so I grinded the pad ears a little and added lubricant. They are still slightly snug but not as bad but I still can hear the intermittent grinding noise when I hand turn the wheel. Also thought it could have been my hand brake (it a manual) because my car sat for about 3 weeks and brakes seized/rusted so I adjusted the handbrake pad distance. Any suggestions what it could be?

[@JonnyDIY]

Hmm I would wait a bit and see if just surface rust. If not I'd pull the wheel and reinspect everything. Hard to say if only happening when turning. Could be something rubbing with the extra force when turning
