When you do used VW Tiguan review, you should be very active about brakes because usually, the whistle of the brakes is a ‘nuisance’ that occurs in spring and summer when temperatures are subject to rise and the brake components tend towards very substantial overheating. The annoying noise that you can hear when you are driving your car is caused by the rubbing between the brake pads and the disc.Â
Intense Effort
In general, even water (for example rain) can increase the friction problems between pads and discs even more. If the contact between the latter two elements is rather prolonged, the phenomenon of crystallization of the brake pads is directly reached which in turn causes the disc to ovalize. Besides, it is worthy to note that a dull noise, like a muffled hammer, noticeable especially when engaging low gears, or when accelerating from low speeds with high gear, often reports defects to the engine mounts. The engine is connected to the vehicle structure through elastic supports that allow a certain margin of movement by damping vibrations. If the damping elements or the joints are worn or loose, a slightly more intense effort is enough to cause frictions that produce this noise.
The Hard Part
There is also a circumstance in which the brakes can continue to whistle despite the fact that the related pads have recently been changed and the disc is perfectly intact. This occurs because the pads in circulation are often composed of a braking paste which is the key cause of the whistle that can be heard. The hardest part is the one located at the edges of the pastilles, towards the corners. Here are an overview about the solutions that can be should be adopted; In this regard, let's examine the very effective solutions to be adopted to solve the problem related to the whistle of the brake pads; in the event that the brake pads are worn or the disc is worn, it is advisable to replace them. It is also fair to underline the fact that the replacement of the pads is useless if the discs are worn.
Possible To Consult
if the new brake pads cause whistling, the corners of the same can be smoothed by using a special file to prevent the contact with the disc from causing the annoying whistle. Otherwise, it is possible to consult the various anti-whistle products on the market, which often preserve the same pads from excessive wear. As discussed above, rain can also be the key cause of the problems of friction between the brake pads and the disc. To ensure that this unpleasant problem is resolved in the shortest possible time, it is possible to resort to the purchase of special anti-whistle tablets which are particularly resistant to water, which should be applied to the brakes following the procedures illustrated on the special package. This solution is also applicable in case of annoying noises when reversing.
