2000-2006 MPV – FRONT BRAKE CLUNKING NOISE

 

APPLICABLE MODEL(S)/VINS

2000-2006 MPV vehicles with VINs lower than JM3LW28**6*566231 ( produced before December 15, 2005)

 

When braking in a forward direction, then changing direction and braking in reverse, a clunk noise may be heard from the front brakes.

This condition is most noticeable when the vehicle is moving forward, then backwards a short distance while applying the brakes in both directions.

 

This may be caused by excessive clearance between the brake pad and caliper support, resulting in a clunk noise.

 

Customers having this concern should have their vehicle repaired using the following repair procedure.

 

REPAIR PROCEDURE

  1. Remove front brake pads and shims from caliper.

CAUTION: Avoid damage or deformation of existing shims because they will be re-used.

  1. Preassemble modified pads with existing shims.

NOTE: Replace brake pads only, original shims must be re-used.
