What Causes the Clicking Sound When Releasing the Brake at Startup?
1 Answers
The reasons for the clicking sound when releasing the brake are: 1. ABS Normal Operation: The ABS working process is actually a cycle of locking, releasing, locking, and releasing, keeping the vehicle in a state of near-lock rolling. When the ABS is activated by hard braking, a clicking sound may occur, which is normal. In this case, simply press the brake pedal firmly to the end. 2. Safety Reminder: When pressing the brake pedal, a clicking sound may be heard between the transmission and the gear lever. The main cause of this sound could be the electronic linkage between the brake system and the automatic transmission. Pressing the brake activates the transmission solenoid valve, producing a clicking sound. This serves as a safety reminder, requiring the gear lever lock button to be pressed before shifting. 3. Loose Chassis Components: If the clicking sound occurs even with light braking, or if the vehicle lacks an automatic transmission lock button, or if the sound is continuous or intermittent, it is likely due to a fault in the brake system or a loose connection in the chassis components. 4. Uneven Brake Disc: The brake disc may develop uneven surfaces during use. When the brake disc becomes uneven, it is more prone to producing abnormal sounds when braking.
