Knocking noise after replacing rotor and brake pads Sign In

Hi all,

I have a 2006 Mazda 5 and recently replaced rotor and brake pads. On the first day, there was no problem.
However, from second day, the issue appears.

The issue is that...
Whenever I starts driving in the morning(long time parking), I hear knocking noise around the wheel, then it goes away after a few minutes. It's very loud.

Can someone please help me finding out what the problem is.

Check this video I recorded.

Thank you in advance

YouTube failed for me but not essential. It happened right after the work so go back and check what you did. Specifically looking for caliper anything including any bracket used, all is tight and any anti-rattle parts intact and in proper position. Slide bolt thru many may be an issue, not tight or who knows?


Rare for new but pads and break off of backing plates so would about need to lift up caliper to see if that happened and if so toss all right now for another brand.


Check your work, the problem wasn't there before you did this,


T
