I have a 2003 p5 3 months Old not much Mileage on it yet, to things that just started happening, the first one is the brakes make noise the first few min of driving after that there fine, is that Normal? I hope not, the second thing I just noticed is that when I have the car in park and start it up and Pump the brakes I hear a clicking noise from the gear shifter area, I have a Manu mantic is it called and it does not make the noise when in gear just in park.

Thanks for reading

i dunno about the brakes but the clicking you hear when you pump the brakes is the shift lock releasing

then is that Normal ? for the noise to be there when Shifting out of park ? it never did the first 2 months,

Thanks For the reply

Matty Mooling

yeah i'm pretty sure. you probably just didn't notice it right away. i know i didn't notice it on my car right away just because my radio is too damn loud most of the time

I found this on the brakes tsb,
