hey guys,

i got another problem that just popped up...
seems like when i break (usually while reversing) i get this weird noise. almost like the metal tab indicator on the breaks are hitting the rotor (comming form the rear i think) but the pads have quite a bit of meat left.

also when going into sharp left handed turns or uturns while on the gas or in neutral it'll make a scraping sound somewhere in the rear.
i was just going home on the freeway, while going straight on the gas i could hear the same scraping noise bouncing off the walls and cars. then when i came to a lower speed and made a right turn the noise went away.

what do you guys think?

 

sounds like the wheel bearing... more people will chime in

 

while driving straight, if the car makes the noise and you turn left to right does the noise go away? like if you unload the wheel you think the noise is coming from

 

turning right the noise is never there.
ive only heard it while turning left and now sometimes while going straight.
i haven't tried going left to right (swerving?) while going straight. but next time i hear it i'll definitely try that.

 

yea probably wheel bearing if you swerve left and right and the noise goes away when you turn right. one of your right bearings is gone

 

k well.. seems as though all the sounds were from the break pad getting low....
gosh i feel like an idiot.
so we changed the pads in the front.
but does anyone know what hte part number is for the front rotor release screw?
or is there anohter way of getting the front rotors off?

 

yup

Part Number 93600-06014-0H
Screw, Flat (6x14)
