  • Noise on front right wheel

    Hello, I have a 2011 Citroen DS3, i have recently had the front break pads and disc done however it is making a noise when i put my foot on the break pedal, as i get slower it makes a wearing noise and then as i get towards a junction to stop it is making a grinding noise as if something is rubbing. The mechanics can't figure out what it is. Any suggestions ? The mechanics also sanded sound the disc which originally got rid of the noise.

    Are you sure it's coming from the front discs? I always had the grinding noise but it was always from the rear discs. Helps if you brake (in low speeds) using the handbrake every now and then. Also if the pads/discs are worn out or grooved then you should replace them also.

    If it is coming from the front I would guess wrong type of pads.

      Yeah, and instead of 3 point turns, every now and then just throw in a cheeky J-turn. That helps too
