C30 new rear brake pad grinding noise
Hi everyone
I replaced my rear brake pads two days ago because the previous pads are worn (on one pad there is literally nothing left) and now they are making a grinding noise when braking. At first I thought they still have to be bedded in so I braked hard a few times while driving to do this but they are still making noise when braking. Is this normal? I replaced them with these from bosch: https://www.autodoc.be/bosch/7428640 I replaced the ones in the front as well and these don't make any noise. I also didn't replace the rotos because they look fine. It's a Volvo C30 1.6D2 2011 |

Please don't be offended by me asking, but you have fitted the pads with the friction material facing towards the disc?
(I once fitted a pad with the metal facing the disc and it made a terrible grinding noise). |

Hi, This was the problem. I took another look at the pads and the one on the left was fitted the wrong way. Stupid mistake but one I'll never forget now!
Thanks for your reply! |
