Vehicle: '96 Legacy L AWD w/the larger OB/GT dual-piston calipers/pads/rotors on the front. EDIT 11/1/2016: Replaced the front left CV axle (lifetime warranty on NAPA NEW axle), it appears to be fixed. First NAPA axle I've had fail, IIRC. Symptom: Makes a Clicking >>Rattling noise when 1st starting out each day or after it's been off for a few hours. - Gradually gets less as car / brake(s warm up. >> Goes away after 5 mins of driving. >> Is Less noticeable w/our latest round of hot (for N. ID) 85-90° weather. - Rotation-based - faster speed = faster clicking. - Seems to be from Driver's side. - Does it whether wheels are turned or straight-ahead. - It gets less and less the firmer I press the pedal. Notes: - Both front axles are NEW (not remfgd) , from our local NAPA auto chain, which I've always had good luck. Axles replaced before I swapped the brakes. And it doesn't sound quite like a bad CV noise. - Front tie-rods - inner AND outer, Sway-bars front and rear, replaced in last year - Removed and regreased the caliper slide bolts and it WAS BETTER for about a day. Clue??? - Widened the gap between the rotor and its brake dust shield. - No difference - Car's brakes seem to work normally. No pulling to one side or the other. - Calipers are 'unknown' condition. Extra set I had from 'who knows what' project. - Pad and rotors are new when I installed the calipers. Suggestions b4 I have the local shop acce$$ my wallet to diagnose? thanks EDIT: Looking @ the 'rusty ring' around the edge of the brake rotor (disk)....thinking it may be hitting. I will grind it down and see.>>>no change.
