Default Brakes are screeching on one side:rotor or pads or both<<<<help

i have brembo cross/slotted rotors and AEM pads. I haven't had them for a year and they are screeching on the pass. side pretty bad. Sounds like metal on metal screeching, and loud too. Is it the rotor or pads.

Probably the pads, you might have glazed them, or just worn them really fast

Can't you check to see whether or not it's the rotor touching the metal part of the pad?

Do you get the sound when moving or braking? It's probably just the pad, but look over the caliper, too and see what kind (if any) wear there is on the rotor.

I'd recommend the cheapest set of OE spec pads from AutoZone and then contact http://www.cobaltfriction.com for soem Axxis Ultimate pads with some new fluid.

lol...kinda of funny reading down the post then that popped up.

Anwayz...Yeah the only way to tell for sure with the brake is to take off your wheels and inspect the pads, calipers, disc and so forth to see if it anything is abnormal.
