Hi All
Ive had my cupra tdi for 3 weeks now and been battling a squeeking sound from the front passenger wheel.
Now when i first noticed it was really loud but only really heard at low speeds with windows down, and it wasnt constant... more of catching noise as the wheels turned but exactly the same sound as squeeking brakes.
The garage where i bought it cleaned em all up (shaved the pads) and gave it back which kind of sorted it... but the noise became more noticebale after the car became warmer.
So it went back again... this time they re-surfaced the discs and pads all round and this did sort it out however i can hear it now and again at slow monuveurs (car parks etc) but at normal driving speeds its fine!
I have also noticed a 2mm gap between the discs and pads... the drivers side seem to touch the discs... as do all other cars i have looked at...?
Please help... would changing the discs and pads for new ones help or ...?
Cheers
