Hrmmmm... I have an 03 Galant with just about 11,000 miles. The other day when I got off the highway and applied my brakes, I heard this noise that I would describe as a clicking noise, but my bf describes it as a rubbing noise. It has been doing this on and off since Thursday 8-4-05. It only does it when the car is slowing down and the noise is in synch with the rotation of the tire. This couldn't be my brakes already at 11,000 miles? My Mom has an 03 Camry with 40,000 and the original brakes. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks

 

The Galant is notorius (sp?) for having bad rotors. At 15,000 miles I already had to switch to aftermarket rotors because they where already warped.

 

hmmm, i have 33,000 on my galant, do you think i should replace the rotors? im not sure if the previous owner did or not, but when i brake hard, i sometimes will get a rythmic vibration, that feeds back into the steering wheel and body.

 

I would but if you want take it somewhere to have them checked. I always had problems with OEM rotors from Mitsu. Upgraded to Rotora and not a problem.

 

53,000 on my car, and I am running factory rotors, factory rear pads, and im on my 4th set of front pads...
