New Front Brake Pads Squeak - HondaClub.com

Hi,

I just installed new ceramic brake pade to both front wheels. It sounds like the front left side squeaks as I press the brake pedal at a speed of 20 mph. I didn't turn the rotors or greese the piston or pins. What do you suggest first?

They have to set up. They will squeek for a while. Also ceramic squeek a little all the time any ways so your in the clear.

ceramic pads will always squeak a little.

anyone know about the brakes in the '99 oddysey, ours always squeeks (drums) , and makes a dinging/clicking sound (discs)

Maybe it's time to replace the front pads and rear shoes.

I don't know, we took it to the garage and they said they replaced the brakes
(my mom is not a good source of car information)

oh well, I don't have to drive it (too much)

When I don't drive the S2000 I drive a 98 Nissan Quest. No worries on getting hated on for driving a mini van.

Thanks for the tip. At least ceramic pads do not make dust on the rims and seem to last longer.

Thanks agin!
