Recommended Posts

Have a CHR GT sport which is making some very load clunking and squeeking noises when I take my foot of the brake peadle. I have just picked it back up from the toyota garage today after they have cleaned them all but it is still making these noises. Can anyone help as this is the 3rd time it has been in to the garage and I have only had it for 4 months and they keep telling me that this is normal.

Hi, 

of you can record these noises and when they exactly happens, forwards, reverse, acceleration or slow down etc.

Hi, 

thanks for sharing the video. 
Hard to say really about the clunky noise , it could be from the gear change and it sounds like it .
For the squeaking noise though it is happening because the brake were not fully depressed and the car was able to move slightly., so this is not a problem. I would agree with technicians about been a normal occurrence. 
What you can try though is to spray some good quality brake cleaner spray onto the discs and pads and move a bit forward spray again and let it dry. The clear surfaces may become slightly yellowish and these will act as abrasive to remove any eventual glazing on the friction surfaces. Other option with same affect is to wash the car or spray the discs with water and leave for overnight. Next day when start driving the brakes will get polished and clean any rust and glaze. Best spray on the market

Sounds just like my Prius if I am manoeuvring at low speed.  As Tony says, the squeaking/creaking is where you are only lightly pressing the brake pedal when coming to a stop/driving away and is perfectly normal.  You have to remember you do not have a noisy ICE running which would probably mask these kind of noises.

Apart from the pedestrian warning sound which mine does not have, all the other sounds seem normal to me.
