Loud Snap
Got in my car this morning, started it up, let it idle for a minute or so.. Put it in reverse started giving it a little gas while getting off the clutch..pretty basic.. The car didn’t want to move felt as if the e-brake was on but it wasn't. Gave it a little more gas and then there was this real loud snap. I got out and nothing was leaking or appeared to be broken. Car seems to run fine, no weird noises and it feels fine now but I'm still concerned.
I had washed my car yesterday and didn't move it after and it sat all night. I know my rotors always develop a little rust that comes right off after a little drive. Could that have locked the car in place like that? If not what else could it have been? |

It is probably the brake pads, mine has been excessively loud a time or 2.

Loud Snap
Mine has done that after sitting overnight with wet brakes. I make a point of driving around the block after washing and have not heard it again. I have seen the outline of the pad on the disk before.

Yep, did it to me once after washing too. Didn't make a noise though, it just didn't want to go at first, then it broke loose.

Every morning I get a pop. It's like the Pirellis are stuck to the cement in the garage. It sounds like they break loose.

Deja Vu...same thing happened to me this morning. I put the car in reverse to back out of the garage and she wouldn't go any where. My husband finally got her to move...but I didn't hear a snap.
