LJ_GQV 115 Report post Posted September 30, 2011 For ages now the brakes on my GTA have screeched really badly,its embarrassing when you pull up next to a bus and your brakes make more noise than that thing does . Anyway, today while i was checking the tyre pressures i was fiddling about and put the small thin air compressor nozzle (like you would use to pump up a football) under/around the calipers/discs and gave it a blast and saw loads of brake dust come billowing out. Done all 4 until no more dust would come out and since doing that i went for a drive and no more screeching brakes . im sure theres probly a technical term for what i done but it looked good when i done it and it seems to have sorted it out too . you should also probly wear a mask and goggles but i just held my breathe and looked away . ive done this before and it lasted for quite a while but it seems to be a build up of brake dust which causes it on my car at least, so if it helps anyone else out its worth doing Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
