I wish my broter DIDN �T MAKE a lot of noise when he comes back from school.
  (If this is a present situation that you want to be different)

I wish my brother WOULDN �T MAKE so much.... 
 (In this case you �re expressing annoyance).

Either use will depend on the context. Hugs!

I agree with wilwarin32. Both options are right.
 
However, I �d say  I wish my brother WOULDN �T MAKE so much noise since you want him to stop doing so in the future.
