Scuffing Noise When Braking

(1/2) > >>

Right Guys,

Got a scuffing noise when braking.  Changed the rear pads and still the noise.  Recently changed the front pads after the noise sounded louder and it’s still there.

The noise does sound like worn pads.

The old pads still had decent amount of meat on them.

Would the discs be the culprit for the sound?

Thank you  :happy2:

Sure it's not the dust shields rubbing on something, not unusual for the rears to rot around the fixings and start moving around, happens on mine.

Do you have any vibration from braking feedback thru pedal?

pudding:
Need to examine both sides of the brake discs to see if the calipers are functioning correctly.

Agree with pudding the outer disc face on mine looked good but the inner face was rusty as hell only about 2cm of pad on disc, turned out sliders were siezed
