hear something from the front passenger side brake....NEED HELP!
Ok i have a 00 civic ex dropped 1.75 inches.... everytime i start moving the car in reverse there is this nasty sound coming from the front passenger side wheel....it sounds like metal on metal grinding but just barely. and then when i press on the brakes the noise stops... and when i start driving forward the same noise starts up again and it doesnt go away. the only way to stop the noise is if i press the brake....please let me know wuts going on with my car...

try bending the brake shield away from your rotors

what he said, or it could be the shims on your brake pads, if the pads are extremely low, change them and it should fix the problem.

yeah i agree, it's more than likely the pads. You should be able to pick up a set from NAPA for around 20.00. I got the carbon metallics from Autozone, less brake dust and better stopping distance with no fade.
