okay, so i just changed my rotors...
I did the pads as well, everything was done correctly. I live by the law of doing it once, and doing it right. However, with the new rotors, on the front driver side, there is a tocking noise when i stop (tick-TOCK) tock noise. I can feel it in my break pedal as well, and i had another member (an ace of trades) over this night to help me trouble shoot the problem... At first i thought it to be a loose clip (between the caliper and the pad) but i have readjusted it 3 times, and with my buddy over we did it again. This time we bent the flex of the clip to ensure proper connectivity. However it still tocked... It is a noise that you can not only hear, but feel as well in the pedal. It's driving me nuts. This was not an issue on the old rotors. Plus, i know for a fact that the rotors are not warped, it only does this on breaking. could i get any ideas? help? something? WTF? theese are nice rotors and i dont wanna revert back due to this... -------------------- QUOTE (presure2 @ Nov 6, 2010 - 6:16 AM) Via FB: fcuking awsome!!! D-man FTW!

Lew - you think this would cause that noise? I was sort of under the impression that if you didn' use a backup wrench but still got it tight itwould just bind up the caliper - but IDK cause I've always used one. not to sound like a 'tard, but what do you mean "backup" wrench? QUOTE(LewFX @ Feb 27, 2008 - 12:13 PM) [snapback]646442[/snapback] it might be since the pad is still moving take the long caliper bolt out...see if you can wrench that 17mm nut or whatever size it is...tighten that then try the caliper bolt with wrench on the nut Yeah, i've been using regular sockets... So take off the caliper and the caliper-bracket? secure the caliper onto the bracket and replace as one assembly? Because the long bolt is on the bracket. (17mm or 18mm i believe) How would that help? Or have i misunderstood completely?
