What causes the noise when stepping on the brake in P gear?
1 Answers
The reasons for the noise when stepping on the brake in P gear are as follows: 1. The sound of the gear lock, which is a normal phenomenon. When the brake is pressed, the gear unlocks, resulting in a clicking sound. 2. The noise caused by parking in P gear without engaging the handbrake. After locking, the vehicle's braking relies on the pawl lock. When the vehicle needs to move out of P gear, the pawl lock is released first, which produces a noise. 3. The noise caused by a slight deviation in the length of the brake pad's steel backing. In this case, you can press the brake, shift to drive gear, let the car move slightly, then shift to reverse gear, let the car move slightly again, and then shift back to drive gear to see if there is a noise every time. If there is, it indicates that the brake pad gap has increased, and the brake pads need to be replaced promptly.
