small squeek noisehidden1 12-14-2011, 08:12 PM I have a 98 camry 4cyl and have replaced the brakes,brake calipers,slides and rotors .Is driving ok except i notice a slight squeek only when going slow 10-35 mph and turning it slightly or fully to right.When going straight or to left it does not make that noise.Also when i place foot on brake lightly it goes away until i let off brake ..I also made sure the dust cover was not rubbing as it was turning. Any ideas what it may be? Mike Gerber 12-17-2011, 12:46 PM Did you use the anti squeak shims or anti squeak grease on the backs of the pads when they were replaced? In my experience this is the usual cause of a squeak that goes away when the brakes are applied. It is caused by the pads vibrating in the caliper. The shims or the grease eliminate the vibration. Mike hidden1 12-18-2011, 10:22 PM Yes I used it.I didnt notice this till after a few hundred miles on new set.Old brakes didnt have shims(were fine).Sounds like something is rubbing against something . Is only when while driving - if the wheel turns-even a hair toward the right..at 10 to 40 mph..When i tap brake, when turning it lets off or stops till moving again. no noise at all turning wheel to left.
