Rich 0 Posted May 18, 2004 Sure this has probably been mentioned before but modem so slow, would take an age to search..... Changed discs and pads yesterday with help from my mate, and ever since there has been a loud scraping/grinding noise coming from the left side. Might be coming from right as well, but driver window is broken so cant put it down to listen! Guessing the pads are rubbing against the disc, did smoke a bit earlier.... Is this part of the runnning in process? Will it disappear after I have put some miles on them? Or do i need to take it apart and adjust something? Brakes seem to work fine though, havent used them hard yet as brand new. Not a mecahnic so don't really know what I am doing, so any advice would be appreciated! Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rich 0 Posted May 19, 2004 Worked out what it was :D Was metal protective shield behind the disc. Had got bent and was rubbing against disc as it went round! Bent it back, and problem solved! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
