Brake Issues - Clicking Noise
Hey everyone.
Looking for some thoughts on what this could be. Whenever I push on my brake pedal a small 'click' happens. It only does it when I push on the brake, not when I let up. It does not do anything when stopped, only when coming to a stop. I can't make out which side, but it is underneath. Has anyone else had this simple 'click' when braking?

This has happened to me a few times. Each time it was related to my rear pads, there is a tab on pad that slides in a metal clip. This clip is set into the caliper. I lubed these tabs with caliper grease an problem solved.
However it lasted a few months and click was back...end of the day I would have to say warped OEM rotors cause in even wear in these tabs and they start to stick a bit.
Installed new Power Stop rotors and pads no clicks for 20,000 km now
Hope this helps....
