Hey Chaps,
My rear brake on the passenger side is scrapping (so I think the disk is rubbing on the pads) but its not constant. You hear it over and over as the wheel rotates, and obviously speeds up as I travel faster. What's weird though is that the scraping disappears totally if I am turning quite hard left, which leads me to wonder if its the wheel bearing that could be causing the problem?
I have had the wheel off and checked the piston and it seem's pretty good, rubber is still around it keeping the dirt out and it winds in and out freely.
Just want people opinions if they reckon it's the wheel bearing of something else?
Cheers!
Luke
