recently had new pads, calipers and discs, and they work perfectly, stop fine no noises

 

however if im stationary and press the brake pedal hard i hear a sort of strain noise like a click from both front brakes, only happens when i put a fair bit of force down, just wondering if this was normal or not

so why do you push down hard on the brake when your stationary if the brakes are working fine?

 

the klick is your knee if your pushing that had :rofl: :rofl:

if the car is at very low speeds like rolling a bit and i press down on the brakes i can hear it, was just wondering, other cars ive driven dont do this

mines does it to........sounds like a squeaky sound :confused: :confused: if that makes sense?!?!?

 

my subaru used to do the same so i'm not to bothered as it brakes straight and true

It could be the brake tension rods getting a bit old - they hold the caliper in place under load and the heavy braking might just be moving it a little bit. Have a look at the rod coming off near the caliper to the main chassis and see if theres any evidence of leaking like a shock absorber.

do you mean the suspension tension/tie rod???, hope you do or theres something fookin missing from my motor

dont worry its a zed trait,creaking brakes at standstill :confused: ive had 3 and they all and is still doing it,it does stop for a while iff you dismantel and "copper slip" the calipers but allways comes back

its no coincidence that a scooby did it too, some of them use the same calipers.
