How much can I expect to pay for squeaky brakes?

I realize this question is kinda broad but my brakes are squealing when I come to a stop and I want to get it fixed. What is the ballpark figure of what I should expect to pay to fix it?How much can I expect to pay for squeaky brakes?I dont believe that they sell squeaky brakes any where but if you find a place please let us knowHow much can I expect to pay for squeaky brakes?places around here charge like 99 dollars but thats for the whole over haulHow much can I expect to pay for squeaky brakes?Is there a Brakeway in your area? Check the phonebook. Brakeway offers $99 new brakes.



Also, with everyone having money problems right now, try talking to your local mechanic. Then, make a cash offer. If you pay cash, the mechanic may do the service for less. The cash doesn't have to go on his taxes, and it doesn't require waiting (like cashing a check that could bounce) or losing a cut (like credit card companies, which take a percentage fee). I get my transmission serviced by a guy who knocks $50 off by paying cash in hand.



Be aware that if you've driven too long with brakes that need to be replaced, you can damage other parts such as the rotor. Buffing the rotor and turning it costs more, and replacing it costs hundreds. But that is worst case scenario!How much can I expect to pay for squeaky brakes?You know, I paid for high dollar brakes on my van and it seems that after I go through those car washes that clean the underneath of your vehicle, my brakes started squeaking again. So, I can't remember what I paid, except that I did buy the higher priced brake pads and after going through the car wash they started squeaking again. This was a FYI response (for your information)How much can I expect to pay for squeaky brakes?Its really according to where you live and what kind of car. Pads can range from 12-50 dollars a set. So if you put them on yourself thats the cost without turning the rotors or drums. If you take it to a mechanic you can expect 100-500 dollar charge according to the needs of the car and type of car or truck.How much can I expect to pay for squeaky brakes?take a water hose and spray the pads and disk down, what causes the squeaking is dirt in the pads or the disk and when you stop the pads squeeze the disk and when dirt is in there it grinds against them both and causes the squeak.How much can I expect to pay for squeaky brakes?Squeaky brakes could be relatively inexpensive. Could be the rotors are just dirty. But it wouldn't be a bad idea to get them inspected if you don't know how to clean them yourself.How much can I expect to pay for squeaky brakes?SQUEAKY NOISE MEANS YOU GOT TO CHANGE YOUR BREAKS SOON ITS A WARNING FOR LOW BREAKS NOW IF YOU DID THEM RESENTLY YOU GOT TO CHECK THEM ..SOMETIME THE WIRE BENTS A LIL AND THE SOUND AS SOON AS YOU PUT THEM ONHow much can I expect to pay for squeaky brakes?Not to short change your question but much depends if new brake rotors, slider pins are needed and the quality of the brake pads.



Cheap off-shore brake rotors cost less than $40.00 each. No name brake pads with no warranty cost $30.00 for both front wheels. A private mechanic would charge $250.00 -$300.00 for the entire package. This quality of brake pad will last one year if you're lucky.



You should have premium ceramic brake pads @ $70.00 for both front wheels. Wagner, AC-Delco or EBC brake rotors would cost $70.00 each. Ceramic pads would last easily 3 years. The beauty of ceramic brake pads is they do not grind cast iron off the brake rotors. If you stay on top of brake pad wear and change them before they are grinding on the backing plates the rotors will last forever.



You get what you pay for.How much can I expect to pay for squeaky brakes?it could cost you $ 2.00 if it,s only brake dust. just get a can of brake cleaner and spray the brakes.How much can I expect to pay for squeaky brakes?If you brakes are squealing that may be because of low quality pads or shoes. Or maybe they are worn out. I recommend BEEP certified pads. Buy them some place where they have them and then install them yourself or bring them to a local mechanic to have them installed.
