Brake noise is one of the most common problems we see. Squealing brakes often mean the brake pads are worn. Grinding sounds can mean the pads are completely gone and metal is touching metal. When this happens, calipers can be damaged. Engine noises are also a warning sign. Knocking, ticking, or tapping sounds may point to low oil, dirty oil, or worn engine parts. Cold weather can make these noises louder because parts tighten as temperatures drop. Suspension noises like clunks or rattles can come from worn shocks, struts, or joints. These parts help keep your vehicle stable. Ignoring these sounds can lead to poor handling and uneven tire wear. At David’s Automotive Repair in The Colony, TX, we encourage drivers to have noises checked early. Finding the cause right away helps prevent damage and keeps repair costs lower.
