New Brake Job Causing Humming Noise


JOEYD2005

Recommended Posts

I recently replaced rotors and pads on my 96 LS400. I used cross-drilled & slotted rotors and oem ceramic pads. When applying the brakes I am hearing a humming noise from the passenger-front brake.

Any ideas as to what could be causing this?

I'm not too experienced with drilled/slotteds but I think they make a little noise. My buddy has them on his vehicle and they don't seem as quiet...

but you say it's eminating from the FR brake... I'd assume it would come from them all...

are the FR pads seated properly???

How would I determine if they are seated?

I installed slotted rotors (Powerslot) on my 93 LS about two years ago. The humming noise when stopping was immediately noticeable and continues to this day. I suspect it is common with all slotted rotors.

It seems to me that the humming comes from all the rotors.
