2007 STi with brakes grinding.

***RONIN*** · 02-21-2007, 08:20 PM

Hey all,

Just curious about the brakes in the STi they seem to grind a bit. I am not sure if this normal or not..brakes being somewhat aggressive. The rotors look normal with no grooves and pads look great. 1100 miles on car and has done it from the beginning.

When do they grind? When you're stopping at a light, going very slow????...then that's normal.
If it's all the time, that's not normal.
Be good,
TomK

Yeah the brembos are notorious for break noise. Especialy in the morning when it's cold and you're backing up. It's normal dont sweat it.
