Has anybody had that problem? i currently have about 1900 miles on my EVO IX (new) and as a couple of weeks i have noticed that after driving for a while and come to a stop my front brakes are "squealing". i called the dealer and they told me that those "high performance" brakes always do that for a while until the initial layer rubs off the calipers/rotors.

Is this true? because it sucks to be driving around in a brand new car with practically one of the best braking systems around which squeal like crazy!

ANYBODY?????

 

that is natural for the evo, just have to get use to it.

 

well that makes me feel alot better. thanx!

 

hey sorry, my car does it too, I am hoping some new rotors will take care of it though.. but sense your car is new, it should go away, get on the highway and break them in, but dont be hard on the engine

 

Drive it for a while... IT should stop making noise.

 

Yes its normal but I wouldn't say there the best brakes not even close. For street us ethere not bad but on a track there terriable

 

My 2006 has about 5000 miles and it squeals when turning in a parking lot or backing out of a space. Otherwise the brakes are quiet and dusty.

 

normal... i put hawk pads on my evo and it made it worse... so the stock pads arnt bad... i will be using stock pads next go round... my stocks pads lasted about 20,000 mi and the squeled about every time i stop... thats just the way it is....
the dealer you bought it from didnt show you the video that covers all the normal stuff with these cars??

 

I wonder if you can find that vid on the internet...hmm anyone know??? My dealer didn't show it to me

 

THATS not normal at all Some cars do it some dont. Dealers see it offten but it should not happen so do ur thing and tell them u bought a car and dont want no freekin squeeling brakes

 

mine have been squealing since day one. i think it is starting to get worse.
