Replying to: tali3 (Apr 12, 2008 1:09 pm) As far as my brakes go they sound horrible. It's not the fact that they are just loud they feel like they are not catching right, especially in rain! It is annoying that they are loud, but they are chirping and creating some other interesting sounds. My rotors look horrible... the surface appears ok but they are very rusty. The dealership turned them and the problem was still present. I just said screw it and bought cross drilled slotted rotors that are powder coated. I also bout high performance QUITE ceramic pads. When I have them installed I will let you know the difference. |

I purchased a used 2005 Madza3 in December and I now have a loud squeaking sound originating from somewhere near the rear wheels when I drive. As I drive faster the sound is faster and when I brake there is a sound of metal crunching metal. As the car slows the scrapping sound also slows until I am stopped and there is no sound at all. I took it to my brake mechanic and he said the brakes were fine. I don't know what this could be. Anyone have this problem before?
