Brakes are loud!

[Roughtx]

My brakes are squeeeeeeking really loud all of the time. I try to ride them soft, but no luck. Does anyone know what the deal could be? The brakes are not even a year old!

1. Something between pad and rotor
2. Glazed rotors from "riding them soft"
3. Bad pads
4. Bad rotors
5. Some/all of the above

You're gonna need some brake work. Get an estimate done on what needs replacing at a brake shop, and then either buy the parts yourself and self-repair or have someone do it. Pads/shoes and rotors are historically pretty easy swaps on Rovers...

What year truck do you have? Is it under warranty?

Maybe I will just throw some new brakes on. Anyone know where to get some cheap ones (good inexpensive ones)?

 

[Roughtx]

Not under warranty. It is a 93' Range Rover.

You have one of two things going on that could cause your noise.
Glazed rotors or after market pads.
Have you recently changed your pads?
