Breaks squeaking.
My rear breaks are squeaking uncontrollably. I took it to Action Yamaha at the end of the year and they replaced the pads and rotors.
Now at any speed my breaks are squeaking and it is really annoying. IS there anything I can do? Should I bring it somewhere else? :nopity: |
Squeaking brakes is usually caused by glaze buildup on the pads. Does it squeak all the time, just when you use them? The glaze is easily removed with fine sand paper. IF you are not using the rear brake and they are squealing, it could be due to your pistons not retracting all the way and keeping friction on the pads /rotor. It is easily fixed by disassembly / cleaning / reassembly of your caliper. Without knowing how and if you use the rear brake , it is just speculation.

It only happens during breaking...it used to be at low speeds but now it happens all the time

Pop your pads out, and scuff them just enough to get the shiny stuff off and reinstall. Your pads are probably glazed. This will fix the problem until they glaze over again. What pads did they repace the others with?

Pop that pads off? I don't consider myself a real DIY type of guy. The extent of my work has been to do and oil change.
I made them replace the pads with OEM pads because I felt that the aftermarket pads were the root of the problem. |
What model yamaha? R-6? It really is super easy. Dont sell yourself short. If you can do an oil change, you can do this.

Nope Gix 750
|
just as easy. Your talking 15 minutes start to finish with a cup of coffee in your hand and a cig.
|
dude pads anyone can do.... take you this super easy
|
easier than taking them off is just spread them with a screw driver and slip some sand paper under them and scuff away. Make sure the paper is folded so you do both the rotor and pad at the same time.
|
but wouldn't have these things been done when they installed them?

Rule of thumb.....Rear brakes are for agricultural experiences and no hands at stop lights.
