If it happens that you hear sounds or discern vibration as soon as you brake with your Volvo 122, this could arise from various problems. In general, there is not necessarily to worry, however it is sometimes wiser to pay attention and of course to fix this concern. Sometimes just scrubbing the room we're talking about will sometimes be enough. Within this dossier, we’re going to find out how to find a diagnostic depending on the noise, and after what will be the arrangements.
Whistling noise on your Volvo 122 front or rear brakes
As soon as a noise from whistling comes with the Volvo 122, it's often due to brake pads. This phenomenon is identical in the event that the noise comes from the rear or front brakes. In fact, the lining of the brake pads turns out to be made of a rubber material, which will allow to adhere to the disc. When this component wears out, the disc will sometimes touch the pad. It is in fact the friction which generates the hiss you can hear. If this is indeed the case, it is essential to change the brake pads. But it is also conceivable that gravel or something else has slipped into the pads. In this case too, a hissing noise may be heard. It is in this situation useful to do control by a mechanic to see if it could be problematic. If ever squeak that you think you can discern, it will probably be enough to acquire a brake cleaner and spray it into your vehicle disc.
Braking vibrations on your Volvo 122
All of this vibration when braking can be seen in different places. At the level of brake pedal of course but also on the valance or in the checkout of this Volvo 122. In most cases, this kind of vibration turns out to be linked to a veiled disc. You will be able to control it visually by removing the wheel to access the disc. Small warning, in the event that it is really the disc that happens to be veiled, it is frankly wiser to change it as soon as possible, simply because it will sometimes degrade other components of the vehicle .
Your Volvo 122 squeaks except when you brake
In this case it is a contrary concern. As soon as you step on the brake pedal, the brake pads stick to the wheel, the shrill noise suddenly goes out. This concern must most likely come from calipers. They happen to be way too close to the wheel as soon as you don't brake. It is therefore this contact that generates the noise. Often it will be enough to apply several strokes ecs of brakes so that the calipers are replaced by themselves. In case this is not the case, you will have to change them!
Loud noise when braking
Suppose your Volvo 122 produces a thud and metallic as soon as you hit the brake, there's a good chance it will come from brake pads. As a rule, the wear indicator is normally expected to work. Only it also happens when the latter is not activated. In this case, do not wait and go to a convenience store. Own worn pads at this point turns out to be pretty careless. It seems imperative to change them.
Conclusion
You have seen most of the situations normally. Now that we have an overview of where the problème may succeed, we necessarily suggest that you go to a mechanic for a better understanding of the problem. Go, roll!
