Bought a 04. 5 in March and had the dlr install the jake brake. Brake worked fine but a noise (chirp?) developed so I took it back to dlr where they installed new brake. It also has developed the chirp. Anybody else having thei problem? It sounds like a fan belt chirp when the brake activates or deactivates. Dlr has referred problem to Star. Any ideas? :confused: Thanks in advance!

Sounds like situation normal. Mine used to chirp like that. Either it has stopped or I just don't notice it, but I don't think it is anything to worry about.
 
I get the noise every once and a while too. I don't pay any attention to it. It also makes a cluck every now and again. I thing the seliniod is sticking a litle. I'll though a couple drops of tool oil in the vaccum line to lube it up.
