Question

Hi all
Got any ideas on this one. I had Leda suspension fitted and also brembo brakes with braided hoses about 2 months ago, done a track day at Bedford just to give you all a bit of history. Now when I turn round in my close (three point turnish) I get a dull clunk when braking in reverse ? Got any anwsers it drivng me mad I hate nosies.

Its the brake pads resitting themselves pal. It only sounds on initial application of the brakes right?

If it does it just once, it's the brake pads reseating as said above. "They all do that sir" I was told. Mine's an MY00.

If it does it more than once, then its probably the pads from the different wheels being dislodged at different times...

You should hear the clonking on the STI7 Brembos with Piagid pads. Happens even when going forward! Car's so noisy that its a minor irritation for me, can't be bothered to remove wheels to shim it till its convenient.
