Whistling sounds....??!

Recommended Posts

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

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

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:

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!
