Ticking noise

Anyone know what this can be from?
Every time I brake on a slanted ground I hear a tick noise coming from the front, or sometimes in reverse on a hill, can literally feel it through my brake pedal

[QUOTE=M3Post;23704535]Yes, it's your brake pads moving in the caliper brake pad carrier. Normal. The brake pads have a rectangular slot so they can slide in the carrier as they wear down and also to keep them in place. The click is the sound of the pad moving on the caliper slider.[/QUOTE

Any way of getting rid of this noise? its pretty LOUD lol

Change the pads bra. The last 30-0% does this. Listen how the noise is obvious when switching to reverse because the lads slide the other way.

In my experiences the OEM pads should not be ran past 25% remaining because of what you are hearing. I've heard it too and despise the sound. Clicks, taps and creeks drive me mad lol.

Really?! That's not good to hear the pads sliding in the caliper then. You might want to check the two bolts holding the caliper to the hub for proper torque.
