grinding sound on front right wheel

[genozide]

Noises from the bearing goes louder with speed...on front disc brakes, there is a plate located behind the rotors....it could be the plate is intermittently in contact with your rotor...

went to my mech yesterday, turns out the rear brake was jammed too. we checked the brake pad and saw the pad was worn out uneven. changed the pad but did not service the caliper (budget )

this doesnt solve the problem yet. will update this thread

I wonder who your mechanic is...

If the brake was jam'ed n only replaced the pads, wasn't the problem was the caliper ? Its jam'ed due to the caliper n by not overhauling it, u have still not solved your problem.

Can bring your car to our mechanic in seri gombak for inspection to trace the actual prob n try to solved it...

X2n,
Should the intermittent noise is associated with the thin metal disc behind the rotor, the probable way forward would be to bend them away from the rotor contact.

Secondly, on your rear brake jam thingy followed by replacement of the pad, you have not solved the real issue which is the brake piston could have been jammed or there is restricted movement leading to uneven wear on the pads.

You may wanna bring your car to a proper mechanic as this is encroaching integrity of the car.

i did told my mech about it and he also agree. but since i didnt have the right budget, i decided to hold it till next month to repair the brake piston.

problem solved!

apparently, there's a screw/nut in the brake caliper (front driver's side) went bent. went to optimum yesterday, and kebetulan the sound went crazy as one of the mech drove my car. cost me rm80 only. all praise to God ^_^

special thanks for all bmwclub members that helped me ^_^

driving is good again aaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
