from wiki

the noise is the calipers. you people are newbs

Exactly what it says "While the brake pedal is being applied"

it still senses the wheels slowing down. the noise your hearing is it pulsing the calipers.

do you know what ABS even stands for??

UNLESS you are SKIDDING ABS will NOT apply.

it is a DORMANT ANIMAL, when you STOP on ICE, and you LOCK a WHEEL UP, it then ENGAGES, it does NOT do ANYTHING during NORMAL driving.

sort of like you should NOT be saying ANYTHING in a thread you know JACK SH;T about.

now get the FVCK out of this thread. you fvcking dumbass

quoted for future generations to marvel at his ignorance and vulgarity.

Get out of this thread already. You have no idea of what you're talking about.

How can I familiarize myself with ABS?
Read your owner's manual for more details on the complete operation and benefits of ABS. The antilock brake system is speed sensitive, and will not activate at very slow speeds. One way to familiarize yourself with the operation of ABS is to test drive the vehicle at a speed above which the ABS activates (usually above 10 mph) in an unobstructed parking lot and apply the brakes firmly. It is easier to activate the ABS on a wet and slippery road surface. The antilock system should prevent the wheels from skidding. Pulsation may be felt in the brake pedal and you may hear a clicking sound. Avoid pumping the brake, even if the pedal is pulsating.

You need to do more research. The ABS system only does this when a) it detects a wheel slipping and b) you're hitting the brakes.

Please stop replying to this thread, since you don't know what you're talking about and you're misleading other who don't know.

from the OP.
you fvcking dumbsh;t.

"he clicking sound gets faster as my car is moving faster and the sound is nonexistant when my car is slows to the 0-5mph range. "

aka, he is NOT slowing down, in fact he is doing the opposite. he is accelerating.

sort of like you should be comitting suicide, which would be the opposite of breathing.

Is your reading comprehension really that bad? Read the paragraph you just noted again, and again, and again.

As I said, stop posting in this thread. You're clueless. Even if you read the link you posted, you'd see that it says to press the brakes firmly, in order to get the wheels to skid. That's why it's easier to activate the ABS on a wet road surface. It does not engage during normal braking that you'd encounter 99.9% of the time.

It's obvious that you thought that the ABS pulses the brakes during normal braking and even when you're not braking. It doesn't.

I have a website?

Bolded your paragraph for clarity. If you're not touching the brakes, ABS isn't doing anything.

Well done genius, you can't even read.

This thread is awesome.

Anyway, someone mention a rock stuck in your tread - I've seen this before, it might be a good idea to go ahead and check.

And the only car's I've heard about that pulse the brakes during normal driving are a few supercars - I forget which car it was, but it was featured on Top Gear (maybe the McMerc?), JC mentioned that the brake pads would "massage" the calipers when driving in the wet to keep everything nice and dry. I doubt the OP is having trouble with that . .

 

[gsellis]

Jeez, what a wasted OT drift.

talyn00 - all 4 corners? Did you just start driving with the windows down (#1 cause of new funny noises - been there all the time, but now you hear them.)

BUT... the number 1 cause of clicking noises that get faster is...... debris. Check you tires for nails, screws, rocks imbedded in them. Slow speed will not generate a noise depending on the location and in reverse. But as speed goes higher, it will 'tap' on the highway and has the whole tire to help as an amplifier. Click, click, click is a big vote for a bolt somewhere off center in a tire.

Edit - duh... LordMopheus mentioned part of this earlier today.

 

[Mr.IncrediblyBored]

I'll be replacing the drivers side CV joint on my car this weekend. Fun times ahead!

 

[Scarpozzi]

I doubt it would be the CV joint unless you hear the noise while turning, (though it still could be if the boot is cracked and worn out...then dirt, grime, etc gets up there and the grease dries out)

I would check your brakes. If your pads are low, they can sometimes click when the caliper pushes metal on metal...all it takes is a worn rotor to hear a "clicking" noise as it goes around. You wouldn't here this at slow speeds because the frequency would be much lower....

 

[iamwiz82]

Could be a bad wheel bearing, as well.

Don't worry, someone said it before I did I was just trying to get this idea more attention as it is the most likely cause, and the easiest to fix.

Wouldn't a bad rotor or pads make a scratching sound, not clicking?

Assuming it isn't just debris in the tires, it's probably a bad wheel bearing, as iamwiz suggested.

 

[gsellis]

HAHAHAHAHAHA... I just remembered another reason for this. So, what kind of friends do you have? Do you have hub caps? Some joker could have put rocks in your hub caps, which would do this on all four corners of the car.

Iamwiz has another possible hit, bad wheel bearings. But still, check the tires first, then your friends second.

 

[Markbnj]

No. Rocks would make noise at low speeds, but at higher speeds they would be held against the outside of the cap by centrifugal force. I actually had Ford leave a lugnut in one of my hubcaps on an XR-7 Cougar back in the 80's. Drove me nuts for half an hour until I drove close enough to a concrete wall to hear the reflected sound, then I knew what it was.

Oh, and /boggle at Batosai's explanation of ABS. ROFL.

Maybe it is a herring then? He would know by now though...

Haha, you would hope. What if it was a _pickled_ herring?

how many times must you be told you're wrong before you understand? is english your second language, because your reading comprehension blows

Wheel bearings and brake pad indicators usually make a squeaking noise. Is it a light tap or a heavy knocking sound? It'll be a crisp, high-pitched tap at high speeds if it's a rock in the tire. A dull knock is usually a CV joint or other metal-related mechanical problem.

i hear it in my car too. its the abs at work. it fluctates the pressure for your antilock brakes by squeezing the calipers lots of times quickly. this keeps it from locking up and you skidding. i noticed it and wondered till i was told

Does this also occur when you aren't braking?

yes. its constantly at work since you car never knows when your going to brake. it gets lesser as the car slows down just like yours.

please go away.
