Same here. Happened with slotted, drilled/slotted and just drilled (less noise on the just drilled).

Do you have drilled or slotted rotors?

i think it has to do with witch way you have the slots pointing on the rotors. had the same prob with mine swaped sides with the rotors stoped instantly and improved the braking noise.

I interpreted the "clicking noise is normal" as something that applied to all GS

um.. it's not that loud, i barely notice it unless it's completely quiet where i'm driving lol and yea it clicks all the time, but not as loud. it gets slightly louder when i start braking, but it doesn't really bother me. i never notice it, no one else really notices it too unless i point it out to them lol

i wouldn't worry about it man, like i said in the other post, go with reputable brand rotors, and you'll be fine! ^_^

That noise is just letting you guys know that your pads are going through a cheese-grater every time you press the brake. Thats the price you pay for looks when you put these things on.
