Seems like whenver I hop in my car the first time i brake i get a scratching sound like pads are worn but the pads are still good. After the first scratch the sound does not come back till I get out of the car adn come back. Is dust just collecting really fast on the brakes?

 

How's the condition of the rotors ?

 

You need to get some anti-sqeek stuff for your pads.

 

What pads?

Brake pads.

If it's been wet/moist, the brake rotors will rust REAL quick. so the first time you touch the brakes it all gets scraped off and sounds scratchy.

Exactly.

Don't worry about it. Your car is fine.

 

Put some Hawk blues on and then you'll hear noises!

 

oxidation

 

i can understand if wet. But this is norcal and it has been dry and and it happens in my dry garage also will it still oxidize in 2 hours with no moisture?
