after doing alot of test and drive my other car around i think a brand new car should not have these sound when i stop or move the car slowly


watch the video and crank your volume up so you can hear it.

00:07 ~ 00:12 very slowly releasing brake pedal, grind sound.


00:31 ~ 00:44 "" click click sound is make when i come to full stop and release break to move car

00:51 ~ 01:12 click click sound from outside the car.

what is wrong with this car?

 

Good news is, since the car is brand new.. you have nothing to really worry about. Just take it back to the dealer and explain the problem, I am sure they will fix it for ya.

 

i used the car for 3 weeks and it's got 1086 miles on it. i mean pads go at least 10,000 miles right?

 

brakes last like 35k easy. sounds like something loose. like a caliper bolt.

 

sounds like Hubcap creaking to me.

 

my 09 xD, the brakes lasted 6,000 miles.... i rode them til almost 19,000 miles. (6,000 is when they started to make noises).

so far, my 2010 xD, i got 16,000 miles, and not a sound.

 

Brake pads and rotors are all about how you use the brakes. I replaced the pads in my Golf at about 125,000 miles. The rears still had some life in them, but I replaced them, anyway.

My xD only has 37,500 on it, but the brakes are still fine. I go pretty easy on them, even though more than 15% of those miles included trailer towing.

 

wr332 - did you happen to have trd springs installed by the dealer prior to picking up the new car? I also get a click click noise on bumpy roads and it is my newly installed trd springs in the back (the tightly wound coils hitting together. Just a though. I plan to install whiteline coil wraps to see if the noise will go away.

 

nope. everything is stock,

i was on the phone and talking to a tech about the problem, and he is like

"" well sir you can't compare scions to other cars, they have different brake systems, scions are cheap cars.. ""

i say "" i know they are budget cars, but how cheap can the it be?? ""

 

UPDATE:

ok went to service and had a tech in the car to see where is the source,

" test drive with customer , while testing heard a click sound from front. "

they can't do anything about it because it was not loud and it does not happen always, just random
but they did re-tighten everything

they told me to bring it back when the problem gets worst
