it will be the back plates rubbing against the rear of the disk , I had this lol , they move easily when your handling the calipers etc : ) .
So yes just remove wheel and you should see the problem.
I think they will just need bending back a little. " dust guards "
so will i see it straight away? will i see something touching at the back? would rather do it myself than someone charge me money for just bending a bit of metal back
yes it will be obvious mate. 5 mins to sort. I did my brakes in bad light and by the time I got everything back together it was dark , I had a bad scraping grating noise when driving , day after I took wheel off and looked behind disk and the plate was touching.
is it definately a wheel off job?
You may get at it with full lock on steering just have a look.
cheers mate so just to clarify alls i need to do is just bend a piece of metal away from the disc and that should cure it?
Hopefully mate , sounds like the excact same issue I had , let us know how you go on .
