Any bro can advise?
As I drive my car out of the carpark to work today...i heard knocking sounds when i step on the brakes..Checked my rims and tyres...everything was fine..and I did not do anything yesterday except cleaning the car... after driving a while and brake a few more times...the knocking sound disappear...
My ride was onli 3 mths old...and i chg my rims fr 14 to 15" less than a mth ago...
What could be cause of the sounds...any problems with the brakes?

I think just monitor, if the sound doesn't come back then don't be so bothered?

hmm did you brake hard or just normal press... from ur post, i see that you wash your ride and it guess u wash ur rim too. think ur rotor is rust after cleaning which is normal. when u got that rush on, u brake for the first few time, the shuttering feeling and sound will be hear. i have that after i clean my rim should be ok now as u drive more

if just the rotor rust, it normal. if u tok about the metal part ard caliper, should be ok too.
