When I drive I heard a loud constant squeeking noise on my front driver side wheel. I re tightened the lugs and it still made the noise then I washed out the wheel with my hose ( thoguth maybe somthing got caught in there). Well the noise stopped for about 5 minutes then it started again. Does anyone know whats going on ? Maybe my wheels arent getting any brake fluid because I havent filled it up a long time and its still full to the line. If so how do you bleed them ?

What kind of brake pads did you use? It may be the metal in the pads doing it. I had this happen with the pads on my old car. You should take the pads off and run some sand paper over them.

make sure the metal slides where the pads sit at aren't touching your rotors. My car was making a screeching noise a week ago and the slide was touching my one rotor so i bent the slide out of the way and no more noise. It also could be your wheel bearing goin bad but i'd check the easy stuff first.

I use bendix ceramic pads, I havent heard the squeeking noise for a while I think the brake bleeding worked.

I have the exact same pads and i hear no squeaking, bleeding it probably helped a lot.

OK, how do you bleed brakes on this car? I've never done it on a car with ABS. I've done it on a non-ABS car lots of times. |
