  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

I’ve noticed that my 2016 3.8L Auto-Hold has begun to creep forward ever so slightly while stopped at a light or in traffic.

I can hear the sound of the disc brakes on the rotor, similar to when the rotors get wet.

Is there an adjustment or way to activate the Auto-Hold a bit stronger?

I will need to check if the pads are simply worn down and need replacement to resolve the auto-hold creep.

That would be my first step. Don't know of any adjustment, never had it happen.
 
The harder you press the brake pedal, the higher the pressure that the auto-hold will keep on the brakes.

Well that could certainly explain the slight creek forward. I’m much harder on the skinny right pedal than the left rectangle pedal.

I will give that a try and see if it helps.

I rotated my tires today and checked both the front and rear brake pads. The front left pads are very low. The front right have almost twice the material. The rotors are smooth and without any grooves. I will schedule a front brake pad job next month.
