Noise From Rear Brakes?

[walker24]

Recently replace my discs and pads (Identical replacements) now when i go round a tight corner i get what i can only describe as a rubbing noise, anyone got any ideas on what could be causing this? i can see anything out of the ordinary.

Am sure I read somewhere that certain disks can rub on the stone shield.

if it is can they be removed with no adverse affect? can they be bent back so they no longer touch?

Have exactly the same problem mate. Had discs and pads all round, OEM parts. Now when cornering or over harsh bumps a scrapping noise can be heard.

I've looked for obvious signs of metal rubbing but can see none. A mechanic looked and said it could be the top hat screw rubbing on the hub as it flexes through cornering etc.

I take it he never indicated how it could be fixed? Really starting to annoy me now.

It's still an ongoing process to actually establish where exactly its coming from. Plus I still need to buy the parts if needed to replace them.

These retaining top hat spring things can be damaged when removing rear discs.

Hi Martin

I have put a post up in the main forum section called "Wheel Noise" with a link to a YouTube video of someone thats recorded a noise from his IS - take a look and see if this is similar to yours?
