satakal · 06-10-2009, 03:04 PM

I'd bet a dollar it would sound different if you drove it to WhiteCastle. What do you think?

200Duece · 06-10-2009, 03:07 PM

but thier hamburgers only come in one size

satakal · 06-10-2009, 03:16 PM

I'm positive In-n-Out would make a difference, but I don't think he has one in driving distance.

NightStalker · 06-10-2009, 05:43 PM

lmao no i dont oh come on any advices?
lol

iAerodynamic · 06-10-2009, 10:02 PM

might need to get yoru brake pads checked..

NaTuReB0Y · 06-10-2009, 10:05 PM

spray some water on it.........get all that dust off.....

NightStalker · 06-10-2009, 10:47 PM

well its not loud when you apply some force it makes like a creek sound the brakes work perfect its just the noise lol

satakal · 06-11-2009, 11:03 AM

imo, every thing is fine. Its nothing I would worry about.

if it still bothers you, call your service dept. They'll tell you something like "when they're cold, they may make a little noise. But, once you get a little heat in them, the sound will go away."

Is that like a babbling brook sound, only louder?

200Duece · 06-14-2009, 12:26 PM

^^^

Sounds pretty normal to me. Just keep your windows rolled up and turn up the tunes a little bit

is this normal???

when did u get the brakes changed last?

Is it an auto or a manual?

The noise.. from the front or back?

have u looked to see if there is anything weird with the discs?

I have seen a small stone trapped between the block and disc, causing major scoring, and destroying a set of pads and discs

do yourself a favour and have a good look

NightStalker · 06-15-2009, 12:48 AM

hey mallard mines an auto
noise is coming front the front
seems normal but idk hmm brakes are yet to be changed

MalM3 · 06-15-2009, 11:49 AM

ok ,

Auto, gets a lot more action compared to a manual. because of the constant riding of the brake. check the disk for scoring at the front

Noise located at the front, which means there isnt anything related to the handbrake..

Check in the service folder for any history of change?
have a look through the service counter in the cluster for info on when the next change should be -
