Horrible noise from back right wheel area
« on: 16 January 2011, 22:06 »
Hey people,

The never ending list of problems continue...

This sound has got progressively worse! Its a loud churning, scraping sound that comes from the back right wheel area.

I have pinned it down to only occurring when braking. So i don't think its a suspension issue.

I have inspected the area and everything looks fine!

Anyone have any ideas? Hopefully just a brake pad issue im hoping

Worn discs or pads? Stone in the pad?

I was looking to upgrade pads soon anyway..

was looking at EBC green stuff pads? any good? Is it worth the extra money for red if I plan on a few mods to take near/ just over 200bhp?
