Hey guys.
Right 1st problem:
Ive had my new brakes on for about errr 3 - 4 weeks now and recently they have started sqeeking! its not a screatch or anything its on off as the near side disc rotates.
The discs are drilled only and have mintex pads. my next door neaigher who used to be a mechanice and hwo also fitted the discs said its more than likely where one of the holes has been drilled and is risen up so every time it catchs that part it sqeeks. BUT its getin worse (louder) surely if that was the case it would fade off as the disc wears??
Any ideas?? like i said its the near side front ONLY.
2nd Problem.
Recently my gearbox has been whiring a little which i believe to be some bearings inside which ive heard is a common fault and can be fixed by gettin it reconditiond, which im going to get done.
But when i finished work tonyt there is a little rattle, is minor tbh and nothing REALLY loud, but when i put the clutch in it totaly stops, no noise or nothing.
Im going to be doing a round trip to santa pod on the 1st of August and im now a little worried!
any help or advice would be great. thanks :y:
