96sz Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Help please. I had a full set of UK brakes fitted a few weeks back, but now i have a loud CLUNK noise when i brake. It sounds like the pads are moving inside the calipers but i dont know if this is normal. I had a similar noise on my last Supra, which had UK`s but i thought that was a fault. Now i`m not so sure.

Guest h7ust Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Make sure they have copper grease on where the pads slides in the caliper too as well as new pins and spring clips, just done mine last week as i had same problem front and back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 When the pads clunk about they don't seize in the caliper body Snuggle them up tight with all the anti rattle *@~# and they are prone to corrode in place. Given that most of the MKIV's I see these days have about 1/2 ton of speakers and amps in the back I am surprised how odd little noises annoy you lot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suppose a Toyota dealer should be able to supply them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
