TSIB brake pad causing clicking noise at slow speeds
After I changed to the TSIB brake pads, I started to hear clicking sounds at slow speeds. For example while turning into a park spot there are usually 2-3 clicks when I turn into the spot. Or when I slow down to make a right turn I can hear the brakes click once or twice. I'm not sure how else to explain the sound except calling it a click. Is this normal? Is anyone else experiencing this?
The brakes feel fine, I can stop on a dime (driving in LA traffic). This only happens when turning and stopping at slow speeds. When its a straight lane and I'm stopping from 25+mph there is no sound.

Yes i know what you are talking about. Are the rotors machined when they installed the new pads?
As for me, they didn't and they ended up machining it.
Honestly, my rule of thumb is.. if new pads are installed.. the rotors should be machined... but of course, the service advisors want to save money by cutting corners.
Bring it back and have them fix it.
