Its been about 2 weeks now since i put my illuminas with the s-techs on. i have noticed this noise though, that is really starting to annoy me. When ever i am driving and put it in reverse, after driving lik 30, it was make a noise as soon as the car moves backward. It sounds like a groaning noise, i think it has a click to it too, but after i back up then come to a stop it wont do it again, unless i put it in drive and go forward. It can be replicated by just putting it in drive and reverse going back and forth. And i only hear it from the front, not sure if its just one side or both. Do any of you hear this or know or have any idea what it is. I checked all the bolts and im pretty sure their tight.


Thanks

I have the same problem but it went away....2 week ago...I dont know whats the problem... sorry

 

How long did you have the problem before it went away?... ive only had these on for 10 days so, i dont know if its still in that break-in period or if theres really a problem.

thanks

could be that the spring isn't sitting on the perch properly... you have to turn the spring until it butts up against the stop on the perch...

also, do the springs have those rubber sleeves on the bottom... i think those help isolate the springs from rubbing metal on metal...

 

if u have a fstb, maybe its when u swithc in reverse its bumping the fstb...

 

had the same problem....if it is a squelin it just means you need to replace your rear brake pads..they are worn down to the sensors and will make a lot of noise when you go in reverse
