My nearly 3 year old Astra 1.7dti sometimes makes a ticking or clicking noise from the rear (drum) brakes when I brake.
I have had the funny men at the garage clean the assy twice now. The second time they decided I had to pay! Both times it seems to have stopped the noise. It's just started to do the same thing again now so I've decided and told them when it gets worse I'll invite someone along to listen to it.
I have been assured this is nothing to worry about but I suspect its a design fault with rear drum brakes. Why have a 20,000 mile or yearly service when you need a 5 or 6 month brake clean?
I'd like to know whether any other Vauxhall's have the same problem or whether I'm just bloody paranoid!
My next car probably wont be another Vauxhall.
