Griding of brakes but all looks good
Need advise on grinding of the front brakes.Can't seem to find any thing on this.
2002 F150
4X4
5.4
121,000 mi
Bought new in the fall if 01
Problem:
Can feel a grinding when I get on the brakes. Sometimes its worse than other times. There is no sound of metal on metal....just the a "sound" that maybe is like a rubber vibration or something. Cant really explain it.
Have pulled the wheels and check the pads....plenty of pad left. Rotors are in good shape also.
Talked with my NAPA dealer and he said to have the rotors turned. So I carried them down to our local "Gateway Tire & Auto Center" and had them turn em.
After about 3/4 weeks....they are doing the same thing.
I don't pull much...a fishing boat ( Aluminum ) or a ski boat ...( ski boat has surge brakes on it )My thoughts are...to replace the pads.......Wagner's TQreplace the rotors.......?
and maybe the calibers too.
Pads have been replaced before.....NAPA
Rotors have been replaced too......NAPA also.
Any advise would be greatly appreciated
