Hello, i have a 07 honda civic ex sedan...and the brakes in the rear sounds like they're grinding. Sounds like metal to metal so i changed the brake pad but it still did the same thing. Any idea what might be broken???

 

Check out Recall 07V399000 that affects the 06-07 Civic.

It has to do with a bad O-Rings letting water into the Hub bearing assembly.

 

i dont think its that.

 

ya thats not it at all thats for abs and wouldnt cause ur noise go to ur dealership and try oem parts?

 

How many miles are on the car and when u changed the pads did u use oem parts and resurface the rotors

 

Is it constant or when the Brakes are applied?

 

Sorry for not replying back...i'm really busy with school and work. Well, i took apart the rear calipers and rotor to find out that the inner brake pad had grind its life away down to bare metal and which was grinding against the rotor tearing it up. the outer pad is still pretty damn thick. So i'm thinking to myself that something has caused the inner pad to keep its grab onto the rotor at all times. Has anyone been through this problem?? What can i do to fix it??

 

make sure the guide pins for the caliper are lube up properly and that the boots are in place

 

thanks man...i'll lube it up real soon. Wow you're a two time platinum tech?
