Problem when braking

Recommended Posts

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.

Ill check these first tomorrow. I did do everything up nice and tight but will check nothing has come loose.

 

could be play in the new pads?? I had prob in the evo 6 pins had rubbed alittle and were letting pads move just 1mm but clonked like a bitch done my headin as checked everything 2-3 times new pins and was clonk was gone. carn't remember if they have locating screw?? if so did you refit?? if not disc may move on hub for a clonk? err only other thing is check hand brake cable shoes may have moved just abit to misaline also is it all moving free??

Yer thats what is was thinking perhaps the securing pin thing has popped out or is a bit worn. I will check this too :) It doesn;t sound like something broken it is more a something is moving sound...

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.

 

Nice!! would have bedded in after a while, so no drama :taped:
