What Causes a Clicking Noise When Braking in Reverse?

[DelCole]

Here are the reasons for a clicking noise when braking: 1. When braking produces a sharp screeching sound, apart from new pad break-in, the first thing to check is whether the brake pads are worn out or if there are foreign objects. If the brake pads are worn out, they should be replaced immediately. If foreign objects are present, the brake pads should be removed to extract the objects before reinstalling. 2. When braking produces a dull thudding sound, inspect the brake caliper for worn sliding pins or detached spring plates. If found, replace them promptly. 3. When braking produces a hissing sound, it's recommended to first check whether there are issues with friction between the caliper, brake disc, and brake pads. 4. When braking produces a rattling noise, inspect whether the attachments on the brake pads have loosened. The best solution is to either reinforce them or replace the brake pads entirely.
