Ring dropping sound

rAdzM · 06-11-2011, 11:54 PM

I have KWv3 w/edc and every time after I drive and park the car I hear a ring dropping sound in the front suspension of the car. I am not sure if this is coming from the kw suspension or somewhere else.

Has anyone had the same scenario before or is this normal?

thanks!

That is your rotors cooling down. It is normal, my car does it. It is more evident after a spirited drive through the mountains, where you have to clutch and brake a lot. So no worries.

if your car is not moving when you hear these sounds then its just your brakes cooling down.

pink ... clink .... .... pink ..... pop

Sounds like the percussion section after a track session.

The sound is completely normal. As others have said it's your brakes cooling down.

Don't worry about it
