Why Do Many Alphard & Vellfire Have “Clicking” Brake Noise?

alp_specialist

Many Alphard / Vellfire owners ask the same question:

“Why does my brake make a click click sound at low speed or on uneven roads?”

The truth is — this is very common, and in most cases, it is not a serious fault.

The Real Reason Behind the Noise

From factory, the original brake caliper design does NOT include a damping ring.
Over time, the caliper pin develops extra clearance due to normal usage.

When driving slowly, braking lightly, or passing over bumps,
this small gap can cause a light metal tapping sound.

✅ Our Improved Solution

At MD AUTO, we use an upgraded caliper pin with an added damping ring to:

• Reduce excessive clearance
• Stabilise caliper movement
• Minimise metal-to-metal contact
• Improve brake quietness and consistency
  
  

Long-term advantage:
After the initial upgrade, only the damping ring needs replacement in the future,
no need to redo the entire setup — more cost-effective over time.

Is This Your Issue?

If your Alphard or Vellfire experiences:

• Light clicking sound at low speed
• Noise when braking slowly
• Sound over uneven road surfaces
  
  

It may simply be a caliper pin clearance issue, not a damaged brake system.

Comment “Brake Noise” and we’ll help you identify whether this applies to your car.
