Now I know that if u have new brake pads there will be some amount of screeching but ive driving about 500 miles on the new ones and theres a great amount of screeching. I looked at my rotors and it looks like the pads are wearing down the rotors? Can anyone tell me whats wrong?

what do you mean by wearing down the rotors? rotors are given a little lip to them as they are used, and when new pads are put on, that lip is touched by the pad, sometimes causing screeching. check that out

when i looked at the rotors...i see that some parts of the rotor are darker? color than the rest. i dont know how to describe it that well

hmm maybe a picture could help describe it better. are they stock pads? did you do it yourself or get it done somewhere?

Lip? What are you talking about? I just did a rotor & pad replacement all around on my DD and there's no squealing at all. I think that has more to do with the pads that were put on. I've got some hard *** track pads on my DSM and it squeals like a SOB on stops. THat's just the nature of the beast

lip on the old rotors, genius. all he said he did was change the pads.

stock rotors new pads. hawk ceramic pads cant really get a clear picture. the camera on the phone blows

Did you bed the pads correctly?

Did you use high temperature grease on the factory shims?

What kind of driving have you been doing? Pads typically don't eat at the rotor unless it's some tracking... at least they shouldn't

i got it done on at a shop...im not really sure but i think i will check that. also i think its only coming from the front driver

The main question is what kind of pads did you get?
