Hey there team

 

My sti has developed a bit of a creaking noise in the front brakes whic is mainly noticeable at low speeds or when pumping the pedal when stationary 

 

On the road the brakes work fine, pads are relatively new (Dixcel) had them on a year now

 

I pulled the front wheels off and removed pads etc but couldn't see anything off or anything cleaned them up a bit but made no difference, fluid is all at the right level as well

 

Link to video below so you can hear the noise this is pumping the pedal slowly

I had the exact same thing with my old V11 Spec C.

Unfortunately I dont recall if or how I fixed mine. 

 

Ah bugger Sounds like it might be common then ?

Is it inside or outside the noise is from?

If it’s inside then

I had a similar thing in another car and it was the rod to the master cylinder. the rod is rounded and sits in a concave bit and it ran out of grease.

The other thing that makes sound is the return spring on the top or the mounting bolts coming loose.

also split firewalls where the welds around the booster mount start to go.

Did they fit the metal shims to the back of the pads?

Mine only squeak when actually stopping, never stationary 

 

Yeah mine have those installed it's not really a squeak more a creak

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
