have a search, 'leon rear caliper problems' or something. or just scroll through the first few paces on this forum. very recently there was a long thred ref this issue. its very common. assuming its the same as several of us, sounds like a fog horn/ rather upset donkey? mine was taken in by dealer and they (under warranty) fitted a fix kit that involved weighting the rear calipers. dont go buying disks just yet!! if it was the same as myself, seat asured me there was no safety implications to worrky about, kit is just under a tonne i think. anyway have a search about. i know your pain though, probably woke up my whole street everytime i got home in the wee hours!!

ive got the same issue but dont want to go near seat, id rather have an upset donky noise!!!

started on mine ever since i fitted some Black Diamond drilled & grooved discs on the front, prob just a bit of chatter from the pads rubbing. Sounds embarrassing but it's not doing any harm... Had same noise on my last car when i uprated the brakes.

 

[andycupra]

common issue.
mine did it. now it doesnt. didnt do anywork on it.

 

[paul-murphys]

so is there anything i can do to fix this problem an does it sound like the rear callipers is where the problem is coming from an has anyone had the problem with the suspension when the car is ful off people? also whats break chatter wont copper slip fix this problem........ please hep it makesthe car sound like a bag of nails. thanks

My pads have copperslip on them but my discs are drilled and slotted so prob something to do with the grooves and how they run across the disc surface.

The squeaking m8 is prob a rubber bush, does it stop when/after it's been raining? If so get some aerosol white grease, (this is usually rubber safe but check the one u buy) and spray round all the rear suspension bushes. Usually does the trick.

 

[paul-murphys]

not sure if stops after been raining but i will wet the bushes an see if it stops the noises, i wil also get some white grease an see if that solves the problem.... is there any way of gettin rid off the noise from the breakes cause it does sound like a bag of nails? cheers

so is there anything i can do to fix this problem

see above

 

[paul-murphys]

have searched rear calliper problems an no look could you send me the link. cheers

 

[richybigman]

It's common for the LCR, mine's done it since day 1 of picking it up. It doesn't do it all the time, just most of it.

 

[paul-murphys]

so is there anyway of fixing this problem or will i have it forever? i have tried to look for calliper problems but no luck... please help or send any links.... cheers

 

[richybigman]

I don't think there is a fix for it. Just get a decent stereo system and you'll never have to hear it again

 

[paul-murphys]

but other people will hear it an when i pull up in town it will sound like a bag of nails?

i no how u feel i heard theres an upgrade that goes on the handbrake just before the brake but they are discontinued and are around £180 and some people say it hasnt fixed the problem. ive had to new rear calipers and still it does it.

sorry pal you might just have to live with it.

 

[paul-murphys]

looks like goin to have to live with it till they find a fix....

i dunno if new pads n discs will do it but still that aint going ot be cheap. i thought once mine had warn in it may stop but it hasnt as yet. bloody annoying
