When i break, my front passenger side wheel crunches and makes a grinding noise.?
Anyone know what this could be? i've been driving it like it for about 2 weeks coz haven't had time to take it to a garage.
Answers:
You really should take your car to the garage and have it looked at,if your brakes totally fail on you while driving fast the consequenses could be fatal for you or someone.
Brake pads have worn down to the rivets you need to get them changed. Probably have to get your discs changed too as it is likely as you have been driving like this they have been scored up by the worn out pads.
Disc brakes are usually at the front wheels of the car and drum brakes on the rear wheels.
brake pads are worn
Sounds like brake pad/disc problems but could also be dodgy CV joint trouble. I would get it checked out.
could be some grit stuck in the brake calipers, it happened to me a few months ago, but it went after a few days when i tried braking sharply. It could be something else if it's lasted for 2 weeks though, so i can't help much sorry
I had this problem on a Rover a few years ago. It was simply a shield around the brake pad rubbing on the disc that I just had to bend back slightly. Failing that, it could be more serious like a worn out or damaged brake pad.
Could be brake callipers, pad,discs. Find time and take it to a reputable garage.
you need new brake pads and probably new rotors or drums at this point.the grinding sound is metal on metal cause your brake pad has no more pad on it.you will ruin your rotors(or drums) if you keep it up.plus its unsafe.
ps choose me as best answer if i helped
Most likely you need brakes and by letting it go this long you probably destroyed the brake caliper. If your mechanically inclined, buy a pair of loaded calipers for your car or take the car to a repair shop for a COMPLETE brake inspection. A complete brake inspection will include measurements of pads, rotors, condition of brake system and prepapre and complete estimate listing parts, labor and warranty info.
Sounds like your brake pads are worn out to the backing plates. Get it to a garage and get them changed ASAP. It may also have scored your discs, which will consequently need changing.
Check your Brake pads.. sound like you have worn them down to the disc.! or the wheel bearing needs replacing.Both are very Dangerous so get it checked..
hi
I had something similar in my old car. It turned out to be a seized brake caliper. In order to cure it I took it to a garage and got them to replace and the pads and discs. For brakes it is really worth letting the professionals do it (I was a student at the time and it was completely worth it!).
A couple of years later exactly the same thing happened again. I think it was something the car was prone to, it was a Fiat Panda 1000 Fire.
your rubbing metal to metal your passenger pad is gone and your now destroying the rotor the more you drive it the more damage and cost you will incure dont be taken by price gouging if its a average car the rotor is about 65.00 and the pads are 25.00 labor should be no more than 1 to 2 hours
sounds like the brake shoes have gone take care
It sounds like your rotor. I would probably get it to the garage pretty quickly.
Break pads and shoes. Brakes are easy to repair if you know the right person to do the job, you will not need to take it to the garage. Be careful who you let work on your car.
brake job.pads..calipers could be seizin..need new 1's..rotors make need cuttin. or get new 1's dependin on the wear..the more u ride on it.more u gonna pay.lol
You may now use the brakes to grind coffee.
grinding noise is definately your worn brake pad grinding into your brake rotors. The continuous noise is the fact that these pads are loose and casing some noise as you drive along.
yeah, yeah,like dylan said, JUST LIKE A WOMEN!
