Default click click click!

I jsut got back home from a vacation, I drove the car around and notice the click sound from the brakes are REALLY loud when going very slow.

IIRC that it's got to do with something on the back of the caliper and applying grease etc. Can some one tell the exact detail to fix this?

have you recently painted your rear calipers ?

there is a pin you''lll see when you take off the wheel

a little difficult to explain but pull that pin and put some Antisieze on it

sorry the pin is on the rear brakes holding in the rear brake pads

its held in place by a clip

just rethought this

check your suspension

im not sure what you have ....springs or coilovers

but make sure they are all the same height

it might be too much load on the rear shocks which is putting stress ont he rear bearings

which might be making the click as well

might have to adjust to lighten the load on the rear

let me know how it turns out

and duh the most obvious answer this is what is what i should have told you first ..my bad

...check the tires for nails and rocks

check around the brakes to see if soemthing lodged up in there

i keep thinking about this post ....if you have an extra set of tires

put them on and see if the noise goes away
