What causes the abnormal noise when reversing an Audi A6?
1 Answers
Audi A6 produces abnormal noise when reversing, with the brake pads tightly fitted against the bracket end face in the forward direction, leaving no clearance gap. Reasons for the clunking noise when reversing: In fact, the clunking sound during reversing is a normal clearance noise and is not a sign of vehicle malfunction. Since the brake pads are mounted on the brake caliper bracket, and under normal circumstances, the brake pads are tightly fitted against the bracket end face in the forward direction with no clearance gap, there is no abnormal noise when braking during forward motion. How to resolve this noise: Apply a thin layer of lubricating grease to the contact areas between the brake pads and the brake caliper bracket. This can help improve the situation to some extent.
