scott87 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Just been out having some pictures taken of the Supra and driving round have noticed that im getting a knocking or clunking noise coming from the rear driverside under braking. What would cause the brake/caliper to do this? Ive got new disks and pads all round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
safcdixon Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 maybe you have a loose bolt from when they were changed, or could be something like a shocker absorber knocking when its under load Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guigsy Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 I got a knocking noise after a top speed run at thunder road. Turned out one of the calliper securing bolts had fallen out and the calliper was being pushed outwards and hitting the wheel. It knocked off all the wheel weights.
