At present, the size of the friction block of the same type of brake pads is inconsistent among domestic manufacturers, especially the width of the friction block, the size deviation between manufacturers can reach three millimeters. As a result, although the surface of the brake disc looks smooth, if larger-sized brake pads are installed on a brake disc that has been rubbed by smaller brake pads, they will also make noise. Solution: burn the CD first, if not, you can drive for a period of time, there will be no sound after the wiring matches.

When the replacement disc sounded, check again and only found scratches on the brake disc.
Solution: When replacing the brake pads, you must first check the brake disc for scratches. If there is a scratch, it is recommended that you scratch it or replace it with a new disc.
Metal embedding: If we find metal fragments on the surface of the brake pad, the possible cause is that water evaporation causes the brake disc to instantaneously produce "quenching" phenomenon, which causes the metal substance of the brake disc to penetrate into it. Brake pads. It has no effect on braking performance, but it will cause brake disc wear and brake squeal. The solution is to keep the surface of the brake pad clean and dust-free when replacing the new brake pad.
