Title: Rear Brakes Rubbing/Scraping Sound
Post by: godsANGER on 22 December 2010, 14:59

Oks was on the way to work this morning at i could here a scraping/rubbing sound from my rear brakes when i was applying the brakes. Been to drop it off at a mates coz i am ging on the razz tonight after work and i cant remember hearing the sound.

Could it have just been because of the cold or could my rear disks be warped etc ?
Also dont think its connected but been getting a sweeky sound when braking but think thats my front pass side thats annoying me as it only with in slow traffic [any ideas on that s well?]

Thanks Any help would be great.

I agree could be snow and ice build up. Drove my girlfiends car and it sounded terrible like brakes where grinding so had a look found loads of compacted snow and ice so cleared that and the noise was gone  :smiley:

Disks are ok, could probably do with changing have some in garage but still plenty on them same with the pads.

Picked the car up to day cant rember hearing any scraping etc so hopefully just ice.

Thanks
