The reason for the severe abnormal noise when braking in reverse gear for the Roewe 360 is: there may be foreign objects between the brake pads and the brake disc, or the brake pads may be worn. It is recommended to go to a 4S store for inspection and repair. The Roewe 360 is the first A-class car under SAIC Roewe's 'Blue Core' strategy, and the model is defined as a compact car. The 2018 all-new Roewe 360 PLUS has a body length of 4579mm, width of 1804mm, height of 1490mm, and a wheelbase of 2660mm, adopting the new family-style rhythmic design language. The 1.4T turbocharged engine equipped in the Roewe 360 has a maximum power of 115kw and a maximum torque of 235nm; the 1.5L naturally aspirated engine has a maximum power of 80kw and a maximum torque of 135nm.
I also experienced a sharp, annoying noise when braking in reverse with my Roewe 360. This is usually caused by severely worn brake pads where the exposed metal parts scrape against the brake disc, with the problem becoming more pronounced due to weight shifting backward during reversing. It could also be due to grooves, rust, or dirt on the brake disc surface, especially noticeable in humid weather. Loose suspension components like ball joints or bushings may also cause noise when reversing due to shaking. It's recommended to first check the brake pad thickness—replace them immediately if they're below 3mm. Regular maintenance and cleaning of the brakes can prevent this issue. Don't ignore loud noises—safety first! A professional diagnosis at a 4S shop can help avoid driving risks.
