Need some help With this.
Less than 45,00 miles on my '05 dakota. when I apply my brakes I hear noise from the front discs. Squeaking,grinding,not cotinual I guess it would be intermittent.Goes away after using the brakes for a while . Brakes function well,no problems stopping,pedal good. Replaced pads 2 times,Same problem after a couple of weeks. Discs have been surfaced,got quiet then came back.
I think it is my discs they are original. What do you guys suggest / replace ? can i get better quality discs at O'rielly or where?

 

I will move this to the 3rd Generation Dakota sub-forum.

 

First let me say welcome to DF and the G3 Dakota section.
I use carbon metallic disc and you can buy those at O'reilly's.

A lot of guys on here use the drilled/slotted rotors.

 

dude u can get a sweet deal on cross drilled and slotted rotors at brakeperformance.com but it sounds like warped rotors... which is weird cause u had them resurfaced.

 

I would check to see if your rotors are making contact with the backing plate or something. Jack one side up at a time and spin the wheel...

 

No noise when tire wheel is raised . Spun by hand. suspected wheel bearingbut it only makes noise when brake pedal is applied. I suspect is is the rotor,I have heard OEM is sometimes pretty cheap quality.

 

Thanks for welcoming me. I am glad to have input from other enthusiasts and persons who went thru it also.

 

out of curiosity have you checked the rear brakes? Pulled the drums?

 

Has anyone bought brakes from brakeperformance.com?

 

I think everyone has it seems...lol
