Hi all
It's been a while since I've had chance to take the car out (& post on the forum... ), but have noticed that my brakes make a rotational squeak; not constant, but at very low speed & on every wheel rotation - even when the brake pedal is not being depressed. I'm not sure of the offending corner just yet as it's not long come out of it's winter hibernation & so I've not had chance to investigate properly.
The more acceleration, the less the noise becomes audible (as one would expect). So beyond 20mph or so there is no issue, but I am acutely aware that there is likely to be friction occurring nonetheless. I did happen to notice this issue last year, but it seemed more intermittent.
The car (996 TS) is equipped with the PCCB & I was wondering if anyone had any ideas as to what may be occurring, as ceramics can't warp? I would expect constant squeaking if the pads were grabbing or they had some muck in them? :dont know: The rotors are fine (the car has only done 30k but have been recently checked anyhow).
I know that ceramics tend to squeal & squeak, but normally only occasionally & when the brake pedal is depressed.
The car is going into my local OPC for warranty renewal on Weds, so I could do with any info anyone may have prior to asking them to investigate (for obvious reasons!!).
I'm a bit stumped on this one, so any advice would be grand.
Cheers
