Brake discs are made of pretty soft steel and there is no rust preventive in the brake discs. The screeching noise comes from water or moisture accumulating on the brake discs and then rusting. If you are in the right climate, you can expect the discs to rust over in about 1/2 an hour. The brownish color of rust can be worn off in a few miles, but it is better to drive the car around the block as soon as you finish the wash job. Applying the brakes and getting the discs warm in a mile or two should be enough to keep the discs from rusting. Sintered metallic brake pads also can form a thin film of rust dust, but it too, should wear off in a few laps around the block.

If it's an actual screeching, it may, in fact, be what the others have suggested. If, however, it's more of a grind/churn when decelerating, it's apparently... normal.
We contacted the dealer and the service techs about this, because we noticed a similar phenomenon with a 2003 Honda Element after it has rained or after the car has been washed. They checked everything to be certain, of course, but told us both times that it's common with the Honda drive train for the Element. Which... I don't really know what a drive train is, but the information made sense, as it corroborated information from 2 separate dealers.

because you spray water on the wheels,and it sets up a light layer of rust ,,in just a few minutes,,and its the pads that are doing this,,it cleans the rust back off,and makes them do this,,also if the brakes get a little wet they,ll do this also,,good luck ,i hope this help,s.

CRV's are like that by way of little sound insulation. form of a tin can. yet you're listening to tires. Ask broker to substantiate. it may be something like a broken tire belt or stability, not alignment.

That's exactly what you should be careful not to do.
