Reasons for Clicking Noise When Reversing a New Car?
1 Answers
Reasons for clicking noise when reversing: The noise occurs when the brake caliper hits the caliper bracket during braking while reversing. Under gravity, the brake caliper moves downward. Since the caliper and bracket are floatingly connected, when braking while reversing, the caliper is lifted upward and hits the upper bracket, producing the noise. This is normal. Braking System: The braking system can be divided into the service brake system, parking brake system, emergency brake system, and auxiliary brake system. The system used to slow down or stop a moving car is called the service brake system; the system used to keep a parked car stationary is called the parking brake system. Functions: In case the service brake system fails, the system that ensures the car can still decelerate or stop is called the emergency brake system. During driving, the system that assists the service brake system in reducing or maintaining speed but cannot bring the vehicle to an emergency stop is called the auxiliary brake system. Among all braking systems, the service brake system and parking brake system are mandatory for every vehicle.
