Try your parts store for this one. They have a wide range of different brake pads for your vehicle with prices going up for the better ones.

I use Wagner on my 1997 Cadillac deville that do not require shims as they are built in.

These are fool proof pads.

Good luck to you...

2005 sequoia limited and just new rotors and pads on front and refaced rotars and break pads in the back. Brakes make noise when shifting from park to drive or reverse and vice versa. Any idea the cause?

I have heard that Toyota's are sensitive to off brand brakes. IF you did not use Toyota brake pads, you might need to wait and see if it goes away with time. If not use Toyota pads.

When I brake is grinding

check the pads , depending on the miles on your vehicle, they may have excessive wear and may need replacement, most shops will do a free brake inspection for you , but go to someone you trust

I had new brake pads and rotors put on my 2005 equionox...now I am getting a grinding noise (intermitently) when making a final stop at a light or stop sign. Sometimes it feels like it's not stopping...

May be the grade of pad that was used in replacement,Would find out if ceramic brake pad is available for this vehicle.They usually cost a little more but provide better perfomance typically less noise issues and create less brake dust.

2005 hyundai accent is making a chattering sound

Depending on the quality of pad used you may get some noise from the brakes mainly squeaks. Grinding or chattering is unusual though. Id take it back to the place that installed the pads/shoes and have them check it out again. Do you get a vibration while braking?

I changed the brake pads on a 05 equinox

Did you bump the ABS pickup at the wheel hub when you changed the brakes? Or are the wires maybe nicked? The noise is normal and might go away depending on the brake pad type you replaced with. The ABS problem might be caused by you.

Some pads are more prone to this condition than others. The best fix is to make sure the mechanic used a lubricant on the back of the pads before installation. This will reduce some brake "chatter", and in most cases cure this problem...Good Luck!

Toyota Camry 2005-Brake pads noise problem

The rear brakes should last from 30000 to 60000 miles or 50000 to 100000 kms. So something is wearing out your brakes too fast. Are you doing the work or some shop. I also assume you have discs and not drums since you mention pads and calipers. I am not certain but usually you need a tool to turn the pistion in when putting in new pads. I would make sure the pads are releasing properly by raising rear of car, stepping on brakes a few times (with engine off and try see if wheels are free by spinning by hand, also try to use handbrake a few times and release it and see if wheels spin freely. Maybe rears always applied. Notice burning smell, are discs glazed from heat? Are you using really cheap pads. Also check the proportioning valve which will decrease pressure to rear brakes during hard braking. Do you notice rear wheels squeling during hard braking. Do you have antilock brake system? Also are you using good quality pads and rotors.

2005 Acura tl brake replacement

The Brembos that come on Type S/Manual models wear fast. I've changed them at 20,000 miles. They are expensive also.

Non-Type S/Manual models I have seen go 80,000 miles. The biggest factor on brake wear is how the vehicle is driven.

At 50,000 miles I would have them inspected. Depending on where you go, make sure you get an accurate measurement of both pads (inboard and outboard). 2mm is the service limit and about that time the indicators start making noise, but not always. Most indepent shops are going to sell you brake pads at 4mm. That's another 10,000 miles at least you could have driven on them.

Never replace just the brake pads, resurface or replace the rotors. The uneven surfaces of the rotor will cause your new pads to wear incorrectly and possibly cause brake noise. Most aftermarket pads will cause a squeel.
