VRSICK 0 Posted October 13, 2009 Help needed...?? I hear a loud whistling noise when i press the brakes while 'reversing'. It doesnt whistle when pressing the brakes when driving forward, only when reversing and its bloody annoying. The minute i take my foot off the brakes while reversing, the whistling goes. So its definately something to do with me brakes but i dont understand why it only happens when i reverse :shrug: Any suggestions???? Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mimjed 0 Posted October 13, 2009 hmmmm odd.....stone or likewise on/in the back side of calliper?? might be dragging when youre reversing and trying to free when youre going forward?? wheel off and have a butchers. see what that brings, if no clues few pics maybe? check disc for wear, and give the wheel a wiggle when you jack up to check wheel bearing Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VRSICK 0 Posted October 15, 2009 Just had the car serviced about 2 months ago. Replaced back brake discs and pads too and got it all oiled up. Whistling sound vanished temporarily but its started agen now :brickwall: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EskimoFriend 0 Posted October 15, 2009 Mine does a very similar thing - more of a whine than a whistle but only in reverse. Its always done it and I've never found out why! Sorry, not much helo I know! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
