ok do you have ABS.. do you change your own brakes... now if someone else changed your brakes without knowing that you have to turn the piston with some needle nose plyies.. and they used a c clap and compressed them they they f***ed them up.. you have to turn the back one and compress the frout ones.. on the stock pad you also must algine the key on pads to the keys on the brakes pistions.. try to spray wd40 on that mug. if not you need new claper. do you want me to check here i can get it you in 8 days you might as well get the ebrake cables they cheap pm me if you want me to look

the reason it started doign this is b/c i hit a ditch WAAAY back. and the only way it has bothered me is the noise.

idk if you could tell but that mother is thigh, so i don't think wd-40 will help out much. but yeah, if i have to order parts ill get them from you for sure.

oh and they changed the brakes correctly.

p.s. no ABS 4 me

ok from what i deal with over here it would have been that but since you dont have abs that clears that problem out.. ahh also check to make sure your ebrake cables are not damage or kinked in any way they should not have any tight turns in them at all only long bends.. let me know what you need..

99% sure there is nothing wrong with the calipers, for everyone that has this problem.

replace the ebrake cables.

i'm in the club too. i look at the 2 ebrake cables and the left one is just pulled all the way like it's locked. it won't come back up. it can't be the cable if it's locked up can it?

order through parts at www.hyundaiusa.com and then pick up at dealer. if you go through the dealer they will charge you extra, each line should only run 65 or so.
