Anyone experience a [click] noise when the brake pedal is 1st depressed...?

 

Can't say I've noticed it, but it probably is related to the tranny shift lock.

 

boy, the only thing you can do about that is take it to the dealer and have them take a look at it. have it fixed under warranty.

 

No, this happens regardless if I'm moving or not. To be clear, the [click] noise occurs everytime I depressed the brake petal - I was just wondering if this was normal or not as to save a trip to the dealer once again.

 

i had that problem the first few weeks in having the car. When I am going downslope, going down my parking garage at work and i press the brake, i get a loud click noise, like something broke. i dont hear it anymore now

 

I believe it has to do with the brake assist feature - we do have a brake assist feature right?

if I am sitting in my car, in the garage, in my pj's fantasizing just before bed, and I happen to tap the brake pedal I also hear a click - it's a single click noise heard almost immediately upon touching the pedal.

my 2 cents

 

That’s the noise - kind of aggravating actually for I've never had another car that did that, and the fact that this car has an obscene amount of other snaps/creaks/rattles to boot - at 800 mi no less.

I've come to the conclusion that perhaps Infiniti may have sub-contracted GM for the interior assembly/parts

 

I empathize with your concern.

At two months old and only ~1050 miles on mine I hear a few buzzeeez and clicking noises too - and I am breaking her in very very gently. Slow over the bumps!

Heck my 99 maxima with 115K miles on it has less rattles - and it's not just because I am used to it.

But I am confident that I made the right decision getting a G35.

So we've all got the brake pedal click - would be great for a veteran experienced G35 driver to chime in and let us know what that noise is.

mine is a 6spd - so I doubt that it's the tranny lockout - but I could be wrong.

Perhaps if it is indeed the brake assist feature as I suspect - then that click could actually be peace of mind.

comments?

 

Listened specifically for this noise yesterday. No click on this 05........

 

Hi,

I just got a new G35 (got about 100 mi), and I noticed the click too. Did yours go away after "break in" period?

To me it sounds like an electrical switch is being turned on for something...
I hope it goes away, because I drive in stop-and-go traffic a lot, and the clicking can get pretty annoying.

 

Rich, I have not noticed any click on my 05X when depressing the brake pedal. Have 16.000 miles on it now.

Wayne, how have you been..?

Actually this was a valid concern that I made the dealer fix - it was a little solenoid switch that is used as a relay to the break lights. This is/was not the shift interlock noise as this noise originates from the shifter area.

Dealer was giving me a hard time about it, but when I told them that the car sits here until it's fixed, amazing how cooperative they became.

 

I had the same problem....

Then I had to slam on the brake really hard I heard two big clunks and then no more brake sounds...

 

Nice - I'm always partial to the brute-force fixes

 

I just noticed yesterday, with car in "park" in the garage, applying the brakes results in a continuous "clicking" noise, that stops as soon as brake pedal released.
This is just another odd noise in a long list (that continues to grow). Ironically, the earlier post that suggests that GM may have been involved in the assembly of this car, is something I was thinking about while driving to work today.
BTW, I have an 04x with 24k miles
