Brakes or Bearing...or something else Posted on 11-03-2008, 12:43 AM @ camarov6.com
last week, when I installed my "new" rear end, also I changed front pads and resurfaced the rotors, but were so bad, that it had to be done like ten times. before that, i had the typical noise that tells you "well, I got to change those pads".
then, after doing that, I noticed an awful squeeking noise on the right disc brake, at the moment of braking, which I thought was caused by the rotor, because of the bad shape those are. but today, I noticed that the noise can be heard at some points when cornering, without any braking, which makes me think it's something on the bearing but before doing the front brake work, that noise wasn't present.
Can anyone tell me what the hell is going on? I don't think the problem is the bearing, because the noise started after resurfacing rotors and replacing pads, before that, there wasn't any noise, just the one made by old pads.

just thinking that the problem was caused by the rotors, today I changed those rotors. apparently...those we're part of the problem. the freaking squeeking noise can be heard now only when cornering...and under light braking.
Please can anyone help me...figuring out what the problem is, is driving me nuts!!
