Thal07 Posted April 23 Report Share Posted April 23 Hi, just after some advice before I spend any money. I have a 2002 bugeye wrx wagon and it has a strange noise when braking. It only happens on gentle braking but it clicks and feels as though its coming through the pedal. Don't think it's Abs related as there's no lights and it stops fine if you brake hard. Any ideas what it is before I start charging discs & pads etc? Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Acula Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 On a for pots brake caliper, brake pads have some thin tin wear indicators(one pad only on each side and usually on the outside but can also be on the inside of the disc) Check pads wear and if ok reshape just a touch those tin indicators. Hope it makes sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope it makes sense. Hi, yes that makes sense thanks. Planning to get it in the air tomorrow and have a good look at the pads. They do look quite low on the outers so they're probably worse on the inners. Hopefully that's all it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
