Hi All,
This is hard to describe so bear with me. If I brake when reversing, and then switch to drive, the first time I brake going forward I hear a small bang sound. Same goes for if I have been driving forwards and braking, and if I stop, reverse, and the first time I brake after reversing, I hear a small bang sound again.
It is as if the brake pad when catching on to the rotor has a gap around it, so that it catches on the wheel and slides forward in the caliper until it hits the edge, same for reversing.
Does anyone else hear this? Is this normal?
This is for a 2023 (I think) Model 3 Performance. I got the car end of December last year, so I have only had it for not even 2 months.
I don't get any sounds going over bumps, or on the highway (or I can't hear them). Only the first time I brake, after braking in the opposite drive direction.
