Jellybean Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Hey What is the explanation for the clonk noise when you brake , I think it is got to do with the Anti-shim Sequel units removed for a better pedal feel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garethr Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 (edited) Possibly the pads moving slightly because the little spring steel parts Toyota calls "PLATE, PAD SUPPORT" (J-Spec) or "SPACER, FRONT DISC BRAKE PAD" (UK-Spec) are missing or not springy. Does it happen if you reverse, then drive forward and apply the brake? Other possibilities are wear in the sliders (J-Spec calipers), or loose wheel nuts.

It normally at slow speeds (20KM) coming up to a stop but just the very odd time, that makes sense the pads moving Edited July 18, 2013 by Jellybean (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David P Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 You'll find that it's more annoying if/when they stop clonking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
