im not sure whats wrong with my car. while i drive it i can hear a grinding noise coming from the front passenger side wheel it sounds like something is rubbing. then i noticed my brakes not braking properly. so when i jacked the car up, while the tire was off the ground i was able to move it back and forth like some sort of play even though the lug nuts were on nice and tight. so i took off the wheel and noticed the rotor was carved out like the top half of it... what could be wrong with it? its a 98 ex by the ways

 

i have the same problem on my eg... are your axles in good condition?

 

Check he bolts holding the bracket that the caliper is bolted to.

 

they have brand new axles



the bolts are on tight and the caliper doesn't move

 

wheel bearings??

 

I would definately say wheel bearing then, it must be pretty bad though to be grinding the rotor down.

 

wheel bearing could be goin bad. go make a nice right turn and get the weight to transfer off that wheel and see if it gets a lil quieter then ul kno.

 

solved the problem, it was the wheel bearing that was out. replaced the hub and now works like a champ again..
