When the disc's friction area is at a substantially higher temperature than the inner portion (hat) the thermal expansion of the friction area is greater than the inner portion and warping occurs. This can be minimized by using "floating" rotors which decouple the friction area from the inner portion and allow thermal expansion to occur at different rates. Primary causes of overheating include undersized or overmachined brake discs, excessive braking (racing, descending hills/mountains), "riding" the brakes, or a <strong>"stuck" brake pad (pad touches disc at all times).</strong></p><p></p><p>Summary : Disc brake is not flat anymore.</p><p></p><p>Read this too, if you like, but do note that he calls 'warped discs' a MYTH, because he's not referring to the standard one piece brake rotors, but the two piece type, which is severely warp resistant <strong>if</strong> mounted properly.</p><p>http://www.stoptech.com/tech_info/wp_warped_brakedisk.shtml</p><p></p><p>Usually if the sound comes from brakes, taking out the wheels and doing visual inspection, will notice where the noise is coming from, esp. if a part is touching places that it's not supposed to touch</p><p></p><p>Of course, after all that, it could also be a dying wheel bearing.</p><p></p><p>Too many possibilities to consider.</p></blockquote><p></p>
