bytespc Posted June 9, 2016 Posted June 9, 2016 Hi peeps..tonight taking a slow right and excelerating normally a sound like a stone caught in a tyre on the left rear...is this the dreaded clicky ? First time in two years of ownership or could it be a sticking caliper? Once on the move at normal speeds no noise.... Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk Quote
Rock_Steady Posted June 10, 2016 Posted June 10, 2016 Tough one. Of course check all tires to find the offending stone. if it's a sticking caliper, that wheel will be the dirtiest, that's one way to identify a sticking caliper if you didn't already know. If it's not that and you think it's a clicking axle then i know there is a sticky on this forum somewhere that tells you how to DIY. 1 Quote

Thanks Bradders I've already had a good read but being physically unable will ask Horsham to look and fix when car goes in for p2 in July. Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk Quote

bytespc Posted June 10, 2016 Author Posted June 10, 2016 I like Two of these and problem solved..the biggest roofing nail you've ever seen Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk Quote
bytespc Posted June 10, 2016 Author Posted June 10, 2016 The culprit and additional tear...was offered a repair but I wouldn't have had faith in it so opted for a pair of Dunlop SP GTX so they match across the Axle. Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk Quote
