2001 Quest brake noise |
|
|
I just picked this up at a CarMax in Atlanta. GXE, has 50K miles. I
hear a "click.click..click...click.....click.......click" as I brake to
a halt- it can be easy to miss if there is much ambient noise. The
clicking sound comes from the passenger-side front wheel. I know it has
something to do with the brakes, I had the same thing happen years ago
on a Voyager, now I can't remember what it was. Anyone's memory better
than mine?

Could be a bunch of things. Need to take the wheel off and look.
I had a stone stuck inside the hubcap once.... |

Could be as simple as a rusty rotor.

Whatever it is PT, it's not expensive to have a brake shop pull the tire and
pads to investigate.
You bought it w/50K mile, have the original pads been changed out yet? If
not, do so and you'll
probably find the problem.
I have a '99 Quest with 100K miles. I'm on my third set of front brake pads.
No problems and
no "click...click...etc..."

Shop said rotors probably weren't turned when new brake pads were put
on. Ended up finding a lot of rust on brake lines, shocks, and parts of
frame (car came from Chicago), trading it back in for a Kia Sedona.
Thanks for helpful comments.
