Why my brakes are producing a loud high pitch noise after just getting new pads?
The brake noise could be produced by the brake pads, even if they are new. Brake pads are made from all different types of materials, some of which can create squeaks when they rub against the rotors. Ceramic pads can be particularly squeaky. Also, when pads are new they can make noise as they wear in to the rotors. First find out from the repair shop what kind of pads they put on. Here’s a website that can give you more insight… http://www.essortment.com/hobbies/automotiverepai_sdvy.htm The loose noise could be from loose caliper bolts or a brake line bracket not fastened and jostling around. It’s also possible that you could have worn suspension components. Sometimes working on a car up on a lift can move worn parts slightly out of their usual position, and thus cause noises you didn’t hear before. It could be a ball joint, upper strut mount or tie rod end. Since it can be hard to find out what’s making the noise when the car isn’t moving, see if you can get it to make the noise by b
