Ok, I need some assistance with an annoying sound my brakes started making today. Even when I'm not moving and I press the brake pedal I hear this rather loud creaking/vibrating noise come from my back right brake :rant: . It has just started out of the blue, I have done no hard braking lately (that I can remember) and it really annoyed me today while I was cruising about running errands. Any help is appreciated.

have u changed pads lately. maybe on of the mounting bolts have been over tightened. maybe it's time to drain out all the old fluid and replace with new fluid. if u do that then pull apart ur calipars and clean it all with metho and put it back together , adjust the handbreak and if the noise is still there come back and ask more questions.
just a thought or 2

brake pads were changed about a month ago and my brake fluid was drained and replaced at the same time, also had discs machined, if one of the bolts is over tightend shouldnt I have heard the noise when I had the pads changed, not a month later?

true

id still pull it all apart and clean it then go from there. seeing as uve said u haven't had to brake hard or anything.

I've got a mate that works at brakes plus so I'll get him to do a brake inspection.
