how many of u broke your parking brake?? (annoying squeek)
hey gang, just wondering if any of u have experienced the shimmying-squeek sound that starts around 10mph (the sound of metal to metal, pulsing-metronome sounding squeek)
front pads have alot of mm left but if i recall correctly.. before i had moved down here to texas from wa - the rear rotor thickness was 6mm and 10+mm fronts - almost a year ago, im pretty sure both my rear rotors, parking brake innards (broken spring)
what gets me is the squeek goes away while decelerating below 10mph.. and makes a weird-nawing sound...
lol its time for rear brake change folks, would u agree???
oem/zim/balo rear rotors + akebono pads im thinking.
thanks to everyone sharing links on this thread, ive chosen to shop at www.autohausaz.com
