Brakes Banging

[rosslyn]

I have a RAV4 03 which has a banging noise when braking particularly in reverse. It has been into the local Toyota garage, under warranty, and they have coated the brake pads with copper slip . This is recommended by Toyota but it has not changed the banging. Has anyone experienced the same problem ? These are the original brake pads from the factory.

First off welcome to the club ....on to your brake problem, just a thought.... but it could be a problem the handbrake shoes which are inside the back disc hubs, could be sticking or out of adjustment and causing the brakes bind and grab in reverse.
