Hi all, I recently had slotted and drilled rotors put on my Legnum only problem now is I have a clicking sound coming from the pads/rotors. It is more noticable when I apply the brakes but when driving normal they click, the sound seems to be the pads going over the slots/drilled area. Is there any way I can stop this?

Common noise fixes:

1. What pads are used, tried a different compound?
2. Are the slotted rottors on the correct corners relevant to the groove design?
3. Has the dust shield been secured properly?
4. Have shims/grease been used?
5. Has the bed in procedure been followed?

This might sound stupid but ive had 2 people in the pass say kinda same thing and it end up being something simple .....

Have you checked the groove of your tyres if there are any rocks stuck in there or a nail/screw in the tyre and when it rotates it makes a clicking sound.

Might not be it but worth checking if its sounds like a clicking sound ???
