Ping Goes The Tyre!

[hadsali]

hi lads, and gals

i recently took my is200 for a 60,000 mile service to roadrunners (i know tut,tut i should have taken it to lexus) and they changes my two front discs and all four pads. Now since they changed them there is a PING PING PING noise coming from one of the tyres when i put the steering wheel in full lock to the right - hence when i turn the steering wheel clockwise.

theres no noise when i full lock anti-clockwise

:duh: :duh:

i'm sure it wasn't there before

any idea's

thanks chaps

I think this is quite common and nothing to worry about

Its down to the brake pad slipping slightly in the caliper.

If you do a search on this Im sure you'll have some peace of mind

[hadsali]

does it need sorting out!

[Brettster]

no its fine, if its what i think it is

what do u mean by a ping sound? are you moving when this happens or do you get the same sound when the car is still?

[hadsali]

when the car is moving, and turning to the right!!!

the sound isn't there when its stationary. the ping goes off every half a second
