Has anyone noticed that their brakes squeal when in reverse? I only notice it when I press on my brakes when backing up any time of the day. I never notice it when I'm stopping at a light or stop sign, etc.....
Some times the brakes sqeal just from surface rust, especially on the first use in the am. Especially after a really humid night, But if you getting it at all times it could be some dirt in the rear drums too.
yea my brakes kinda squeal, its only 1 day and 45 mi. old. It doesnt happen when i brake but when im slowly moving, and it not really loud, but quite.
Hye on a new car I've heard that the lingings have to seat with the rotors maybe you should try a few pretty hard apllications, don't lock them up but go fiarly fast and come to a quick stop. If you went a little easy on the brakes when they were new maybe you got a glaze on the lingings. No expert here for sure, but I've heard others more in the know LOL say this.
Same. I noticed brake squeal when I'm in reverse with full lock. It seems to happen when it's wet outside e.g. rain or snow.
