wifiabc Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 I recently notice that when I step on the brakes while going downhill at highway speeds, there is a soft high-pitched sound reflected off the cliff. The sound reminds me of that made by crickets. Is this indication that the brake pads of the 1992 ES300 are worn? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingjack133 Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 That is the first thing i would check......before the rivets gouge the rotors and cost a whole lot more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blk_on_blk Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 Yep, I would second that on the brake indicators. Don't worry, though, for you've got a little time when your indicators start singing before you hit rivets, but not that much... might want to get those parts ordered soon, and don't forget to go with cermic pads!
