Why are my new brake pads dragging?
Brake drag is caused by the brake pads or shoes not releasing completely when the brake pedal is released. A worn or corroded master cylinder bore causes excess pedal effort resulting in dragging brakes.
What causes brake noise after new rotors and pads?
One of the major cause of brakes noise after new pads and rotors is having excess brake dust that is trapped between the caliper and the rotor.
Do you need to replace your brake pads and rotors?
But sometimes, it is very possible to lubricate and release the stuck caliper pins. And in other cases, you need to replace the calipers completely. Also, it’s likely that you will need new brake pads and rotors. Whenever there is a brake job done on your car or replace a brake pad, you must replace the shims.
Can a brake rotor be a brake drag?
To correct this, replacement of the rotors and pads will be necessary. This situation could come across as a brake drag but is a drag due to wheel bearings being seized due to a lack of grease or over tightening during installation. The easiest way to diagnose this is to remove the caliper from the rotor and turn the rotor.
Why do I have drag on my brake pads?
If the rotors are warped, you will experience a drag while turning the rotor followed by the rotor turning easy. This situation will then repeat for each rotor rotation. To correct this, replacement of the rotors and pads will be necessary.

Why are my new brake pads and rotors getting super hot?
The friction of both parts ( rotors and brake pads) stops the car.. HEAT… If you are coming down a mountain, hill grade, using too much brakes, they will get very hot ( that is normal).. If they get too hot, fade ( takes a longer time to stop and brake pedal goes closer to floor in order to stop..)but…
Why is my brake rotor grinding when moving?
It is not the wear indicators because the pads are brand new and would not be able to even reach the rotor surface due to all the material still on the pad. It almost seems like the pads are catching on the rotor as it spins. Did I buy a brand new warped rotor?
