Grinding Sound In Back Wheel
#1
Yeah so theres this really annoying sound comming from one of my back wheels, it's sorta like rubbing steel wool on metal or something. I assume it's something to do with the brakes since when I push them hard it goes away and when i drive with the handbrake on a bit it also goes away. But what I want to know is what exactly it could be, it just happend randomly one day. I'm gonna take my wheel off and check it out this weekend if I have time.
thanks.
thanks.

many cars i have acquired have this problem it goes away at hard braking but is there for light braking and not when e-braking. every car i replace the rotors, and its gone. if the car sat for a month or more with rust build up on the rotors it highly possible that they are the cause.

Im gonna try changing my pads first, then if that does nothing maybe the rotors.
The griding sound goes away when I brake tho. And my brakes seem to work perfectly fine.
This sound is soo annoying. 02.gif

i wouldn't change them i would clean them and spray them with a product in an Orange can thats squeak-ex or something, and if still there replace pads and rotors all at once
o i forgot to mention my tib did this ass well. new pads make no difference it comes back in less than a few hundred miles. sure new pads are great but if you pay labor and then later warrenty them out you pay labor twice.
