Braking rubbing noise

[xavier2k12]

yeah when i brake hard it goes like a heavy machine coming to silence, quite like it xD i guess they need replacement I've got 35000km but they don't grint on metal yet, i thing it has something to do with the filthy roads to...

The rub noise is quiet normal and as it's been mentioned tends to happen over night when moisture settles on the discs and pads. Nothing to worry about.

Yeh, I've noticed my handbrake sticking first thing on a morning the last few days...
Thuds as you first pull away...

Bring on the warmer weather

I had the clunk from the brakes releasing once the handbrake was off as well, no other concerns and assumed that it was the heat of the brakes when applied combining with the damp air we've had recently.

Driving with both brake and accelerator pedals applied, sorts it quicker. Takes a bit of nerve tho LOL

PS - just planted 3 cider trees my new back garden. Hertfordshire Red Streak, Dabinett, and D'arcy spice. All good cider trees. Start bearing fruit 3 years, full whack 6 years. Yer all invited to a BBQ with home made cider! (Used to make my own strong home brew beer ;-)

Hope they did not use a chamie

Just had my brakes looked at for rubbing noise and handbrake release clunk. Turns out Citroen assembled sliders dry and were sticking so hence the pads were glazing. Wheel nuts were also dry. Not great really and I'm told all Citroens are assembled like this. It seems to be sorted now.
