my car has been making a grinding noise and it sound like it is coming from the back. I know its not the brakes because the brakes were changed 2 weeks ago. and it was making the noise before i changed the brakes too. just trying to see if anyone know what it could be. thanks for the help guys

 

Seized up caliper?
Wheel bearing?

Give us a little more description...when does it do it? What exactly does it sound like? When did it start?

 

i got the same thing 02.gif ..i think mines a wheel bearing though

 

if anyone is having a rear bearing problem FIX IT ASAP seriously its rediculasly easy if you have rear drums and i bet just as easy for disks

i had one lock on me doing 80 on the freeway

it caused my hub to lock in place and basically LOCK my brakes only in that rear tire

i span like 8 times came really close to the guard rail

total damage cuz i didnt wanna buy a $40 part

new tires - 280 bux(crazy bald spots on all 4 from the braking)
new pads - 60 bux
new drum - 100
new brake cylinder - 65
new springs for the drums - 25
hub - 45
ebrake cable snapped - 45
blown strut- 45
alignment-65

 

thanks man..now ill be nervous as hell until i fix it sad.gif ..which im sure now will be very soon..if i spin out im buying a lambo...or pinto..

 

it does it when i apply the breaks. it started about a month ago. it just sounds like grinding, i dont know how else to explain it. i drive a 2000 tib by the way. thanks

 

well if its only happening when you apply the brakes

ever think your brakes may need changin?

lol lmao.gif

 

oh really, that is a great idea!!!!!! to bad i said in the first post that i changed them 2 weeks ago smile.gif

 

you may have changed them

but did you adjust the ebrake cable?

install them right?

did you get the drums cut?

 

they should be installed right, i had it done at a hyundai dealership smile.gif
