jscaml 0 Posted October 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 just waiting for a breaker bar somebody airgunned the bolts up v. tight. Got the wheel in the air and span it , looks like the wheel weight is catching on the caliper, do you reckon that would get louder when I brake? i can't work it out. Link to post Share on other sites
gavinvr6 0 Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 how bigs the bloody wheel weight lol?check that the cv boot is not split on that side as a dry cv joint will click as the casing is burning up and collapsing, but thats worse case. also try checking that the abs sensor hasnt come loose/broken and knocking on the abs speed ring Link to post Share on other sites
spoonman2 2 Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 I ve had exactly the same problem, the wheel weight was catching the caliper. Got an angle grinder on the caliper and all is fine now. I had put new pads and discs on and this made the difference. Ian Link to post Share on other sites
