Brake Repair – Listening for Different Sounds
Cars today are usually equipped with an anti-lock system (ABS). This system’s purpose is to keep the wheels from locking in a sudden stop, and the installation of these systems has taken the pressure off the driver to remember to stop differently in an emergency. Before, pumping the pedal was suggested in critical situations, but the urgency of a moment was cause for a driver to forget the rules of the emergency, and then came the standard installation of ABS. The system automatically engages when the car senses a wheel-locking situation. The initiation of the system makes a noise. If a driver is familiar with this noise, it can keep him/her from taking the vehicle in for a diagnostic without need. It seems a little bit of a stretch, but it is true: vehicles are often taken in for repair due to the initial noise the ABS makes when engaged.
Another addition that can cause a non-urgent noise is the installation of high performance carbon-metallic pads. Often those who tinker in refurbishing lean toward this upgrade, and to the sheer annoyance of the person who has shelled out the bucks or the time for the high dollar extra, high performance carbon-metallic pads makes noise. The only way to nip the noise is to install a stereo system that will outdo it, sound proof the cab of your vehicle, or change back to regular pads. Bummer!
