My front brakes are totally screwed up. 3 months ago and went to midas and they told me i needed to replace my rotors becuase they are two thin, and they get hot and thats why they squeak. Now when i coast my brakes make noises. Midas also said that i am missed some hardware on my brakes and it was the springs for them. Ok should i do it myself. I don't know much about it. Do i need the springs? COuld they be causing all the noise? SHould i do it myself, new rotors and pads. And wats a brake hardware kit? Thanks for any feedback.

 

please someone help me...

 

Well if what Midas is telling you is true... Then go out and buy some rotors and new pads and a hardware kit(pretty much everything you need for installation) and do it yourself. Try the maxima package on eatricezone.com I've heard some good things about it. i also have too thin of rotor and one side missing shims and cheap pads so I have squeal in my braking.

Could i just buy some new rotors. I want to save alot of money. Could i keep my old pads? And do i need the hardware kit? And one more thing my brakes on the diver side front makes a scratching noise when i drive and coast. Wats wrong with it? WOuld changing my rotors changed that too?

 

you can (or have to) buy some new rotors. but how whould that save you a lot of money? don't keep your old pads. put in new pads for your new rotors, that's what some people said here in the org. you don't want your old pad ruin your new rotors. if you want to do it yourself, please buy a service manuel form amazon or autozone and follow the directions. Also Please search the forum. I know couple sites give detail instruction with pics.
