    Default Replacement pads squealing

    Hi

    I own a toyota avensis which after 55k needed its first full set of pads front & rear, plus new disks on the front.

    After about 4 weeks, the front brakes make a terrible squeal when first used in the mornings, after 2 -3 braking occasions at junctions the noise goes away.

    Could anyone tell me what can be done & should I go back to the garage to complain?

    cheers

    Brakes shouldn't squeal take it back and get them to sort it. Ask them if the pads they fitted are regulation 90 if not ask them why and insist they use them.

    Brake squeal is caused by high frequency vibration this is why brake pads have developed over many years and now have things like anti squeal shims and coatings on the backs of pads to prevent it. High temperature lubricants are also used on contact points to prevent the noise being generated when the pad vibrates.

    Brake dust dos not cause squeal but is a great reason for garages to give and a reason to charge you to do the work again. My suggestion would be poor quality pads or poor fitting.
