SupraStar 3000 Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Heading home and heard this kind if squeaking rubbing noise coming from the driverside rear. Originally my worst thought was bearings but about 2 weeks ago I heard the same sound and I'm sure its to do with the break system. Last time: I heard the sound I found a silver clip that wasnt painted red like the rest of the assembly. The callipers were pinted by myself last year and I can't understand how a clip has moved to reveal the unpainted side. Also, the breaks seemed warmer than usual. I tried moving the clip but it wouldn't budge. I don't know if I temporary solved the problem but the noise HAD stopped......until today Today: Same side and noise but can't seem to find the problem. Any ideas. My mate said it maybe an audible warning device to notify me that a pad needs replacing. damn this Supra demands alot of time and money to keep running Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
