brake hum mmm
I put on a new set of pads and rotors on all four corners. So now when I pull away from stopped sounds like one is humming or a mmmmmm. For just about a rotation. Any suggestions.
exactly same here!.. i took mine to a mechanic and he told me that one of the calipers would not release completely. He took the caliper apart and greased the piston. the huming went away for 1 month and came back. I think its just time replace my caliper/s (besides its got 145K on stock calipers)
Maybe you just gotta brake them inn all the way and let the pads set in right. did you grease areas where metal with metal make contact? is the piston's rubber boot torn?

Just went through this, greasing the sliders helps... but I had one caliper seize, had to replace it... Anyone know how long, typically, these calipers should last? I know the brakes are beasts on these things (huge).
thanks guys . i did not grease anything actually i never heard of that but i can take the wheel off and try that !! sounds like fun on a saturday morning ! thanks again
