Does anyone else suffer from a metallic crack sound when applying the brake the first time after pulling away. Quite loud with window down. Once done it doesn't do it again until the car has been stood stationary for a while, such as park up go shopping for an hour, pull away and brake and there it is again. Brakes work OK just this noise which is quite loud?
Or maybe you've run over a lollipop lady who's still trapped underneath. The electronic brake makes quite a distinctive motorised noise when applying or releasing. My brakes make all manner of groans and creaks when barely touching the brake pedal. I'm hoping they are just settling in.
Used to have 2015 1.6dCi 130 Xtronic N-tec+ in Gun Metallic
Mine started doing it, luckily around the time of its first service. It made a real loud crack when initially pulling away or moving from reverse to first. It was the pads moving in the caliper and was fixed under warranty
Yeap, I have also this noise after the electronic handbrake is released and when first breaking. After the second third time this sound stops. It is kinda annoying but didn't bother more with this. Will put the techs look into it in my first service around December.
Thanks for the feedback, sounds like that is what it could be. Nissan Winchester have looked at it once when I had the Connect recall, but guess what couldn't find anything wrong Sir! They bl**dy well will next time.
Hi I get that clunking noise when first breaking, but also I get a metallic pranging noise sometimes, when breaking and turning right. the car has been examined twice by the dealer but they say that they cant hear anything wrong. ?????
