you sure its brakes? and not warn tires, brakes don't care what direction you're moving, now my bald ___ tires screeched when i turned even at low speeds but not my brakes

tCaZ · 08-30-2008, 07:04 AM

tires are 2 months old

hiximrichard · 08-30-2008, 07:10 AM

actually this is also one of my problems except my brakes screech without and turning.. is this because of my tire wear?

tCaZ · 08-30-2008, 08:23 PM

the tires are still good and new though

BlkTC · 09-01-2008, 07:39 AM

either rotors warped and no pads.. uneven wear or something.. you probably need to get under the car and examine the brake pads.. if it's metal on metal.. switch them out asap.

tCaZ · 09-01-2008, 09:11 PM

ok ty. do u have estimate on cost if that was the problem?

**Ace83** · 09-01-2008, 09:24 PM

yeah check the rotors if its warped or if the brakes are worn.. you might also check the wheel bearing, a bad one can cause the calipers to rub with rotors and score it really bad but the noise more of a grinding, metal rubbing noise.. if its a screeching noise, i bet its the tires

I have the squeal from my brakes, but only some of the time when im braking (probably 75% of the time). Its annoying but I haven't been able to get my car on a lift to take a look.

tCaZ · 09-01-2008, 10:31 PM

jeez, sounds expensive.

Coolwaterz · 09-03-2008, 03:29 AM

is it a loud sharp screeching noise?
i noticed a little rubbing when i turn and brake. especially hard turns.
could it be your calipers?

BlkTC · 09-03-2008, 04:00 AM

maybe you have hawk pads.. hps plus. ceramic pads will eat up your rotors.. i don't know what you have.. but an estimated cost could be quite expensive.. new front rotors and new pads.. maybe 270 give or take..

orrr, you can pm me on a hook up for all four rotors and brake pads for less than that...

tCaZ · 09-03-2008, 11:16 PM

ok i will have my body shop check it out, im getting my break calipers painted though

sciontc_mich · 09-04-2008, 07:16 AM

are you holding the steering wheel at full lock, where it doesn't stop anymore when this noise happens?

tCaZ · 09-05-2008, 12:34 AM

i dont think so, but there is a posibility.
