Brake noise

I've got about 300 miles on my G and I'm getting a strange whistle sound from the brakes when they're applied at very low speed (< 5 mph) like when coming to a complete stop at a traffic light, etc. Anyone else getting this?

Re: Brake noise

Its sounds like the brake wasn't breaking in properly, if that's the case then you'll need to resurface the brake which will lower the life spend of the brake.

Re: Brake noise

Or it could be just normal brake squeaks...the manual says it's normal at low speeds. I get it too sometimes at low speeds when I am braking. I wouldn't worry.

Re: Brake noise

As previously posted, mine squeak after washing or driving on wet roads, then letting the car sit for a while. The light film of rust on the rotors, I think. They never squeak when clean.

Re: Brake noise

That's another possibility too. For some reason Nissan's brake squeak on low speed braking, especially when the vehicle is coming to a comlete stop. My relative's 01 Maxima having the same problem. But on my previous 95 TT Z, I never had this problem may be because I replace it with Brembo, hehe.

Re: Brake noise

I noticed that this subject has gotten alot of attention on other threads (I should have checked). I think I'll just leave it alone for awhile and see what happens. And these are Brembo
