chettle Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 Could be the dust guard behind the disk, just jack up the car, spin the wheel and keep bending it till it stops? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roo Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 Is the noise only when you brake or all the time? Is it only when you set off? Like a caliper is not releasing? A not more info may help. But dont gamble with brakes. If in doubt get it to a professional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the time, when i break it doesnt make noise, but when i drive thats when it makes the noise till the car totally stops, i am going to check the dusk guard tomorrow so ill see what happens. And ill let you guys know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
