Squeaky Brakes!!

Post by voodoo_jellybaby2k2 »

:lol: if anyones going to reply to any of these threads, please god please help me with this one!!

Its the most embarrassing and annoying thing in the world!!!! :rant: :rant: (....after being beaten by a ford kak in a race :roll: )

Anyways, my brakes are really squeaking/squealing and its getting beyond a joke. It used to be worse, but took it to a garage and they cleaned them all out \"supposedly\", as they said it was a build up of brake dust. Now I\'ve had this done, there not AS bad, but its still there, and is still just as bad when I\'m coming to a complete stop...... its unbearable!

Also another point to make i get an evenly made sound when i sometimes turn a corner (i.e. it\'ll squeak/squeal as the wheel goes round, and gets faster as i accelerate and slower as a decelerate). This happens without me applying the brakes.....

Ive been told my discs are warped, I\'ve been told to take pads off and sand them down, I\'ve been told to get new pads, I\'ve been told to get new discs, also been told my discs look brand new and nothing wrong with them......also been told need new calipers... :roll:

Can someone tell me what i need to do/clean/replace etc, and please no-body tell me i need a new car or to get some bigger uprated brakes as i cant afford it, and haven\'t got the time or the skills to do it either.

Cheers again in advance people :thumbs:
