My brake pedal makes this weird creaking feeling when I depress it. Sometimes it also makes a light clicking noise. It only started a couple of months ago, but everything else is normal. What's going on?

Hey, your brake pedal always makes a small click whenever you depress it... that is just the power brake system working. ALL cars do this, and your disco has always done it-- I promise. As for a creaking feeling i would suggest lubing up the brake mechanism with some wd-40. If that doesnt do the trick than take it to your dealership...brakes are important! Good luck.

It the brake light switch, Sounds like it on its last leg, Lube the old one up and get a spare switch. When it goes you are stuck

Mine is doing that too. Sounds like a very soft creaking sound, not like a squeaking hinge, just a quiet rubbing. Definitely the switch, huh?

Does anyone have a better price than AB?

Cheers,

Erik

Well, it's always lightly clicked, but now it's getting louder and more noticeable...maybe I just think it's louder because of the creaking? I am taking more notice of it. I'll do the wd-40 thing...god knows I've got about 10 cans of it here.
