I had my front discs and pads changed last year and they work well..just been through the MOT couple of weeks ago

 

recently whilst reversing from a parking space doing a left full lock the driver's side front disc brake made metal to metal grinding noises...but disappeared after a few hundred yards and with application of the brakes...

i have taken a photo of the caliper...best i could get with the wheel on and the pad seems to be ok...i noticed a bar going over from the inside of the caliper to the front..

a linkage to pull the front half of the caliper against the disc or steady it in some way.??

 

the braking on the move is excellent and the car pulls up on both discs equally

 

is there some lubrication required perhaps

 

cheers

this post was about the grinding noises

 

i have found out now its rust falling off the disc edge...coming home i went over a speed hump...although i slowed right down the slope was steep and i bumped up a bit...the grinding noise started then...and soon passes away..

 

thanks to all

cheers

No problem, glad I can help.

 

I probably have an advantage as I look at / judge many photos.

 

Thanks, AG Falco

both my wife and i were in a camera club down here in Penzance when we lived there  1978-2000

thought you might have meant that.

best place to learn the basics and finer approaches to taking images...

and if you want to win a place in the top 3..it gives you impetus to take photos...and learn from the winners

i did trannys and my wife did  B>W prints

 

thanks, Geof
