jaytee5211 Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 So my loyale developed a weird problem. The passenger side front brake locks up some times. Not a full lock but enough to bring it to a stop. I replaced the pads and rotors thinking that was the problem but it still does it. Also I have a rubbing/grinding noise from that wheel before and after replacement and a clunking noise whenever I turn right and only when I turn right. Any help?

Dee2 Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Sounds like a possible problem with the caliper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazyeights Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Does the car have a manual transmission? I would check to make sure the hill holder cable isn't adjusted to tight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaytee5211 Posted March 20, 2016 Author Share Posted March 20, 2016 Happened again on my way home last night... Was driving down the road and made a right and the brake started dragging. Enough to make it smoke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazyeights Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 It is starting to sound like a wheel bearing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaytee5211 Posted March 22, 2016 Author Share Posted March 22, 2016 Thanks guys. I took of my wheel and rotor/caliper and spun the axle by hand. Definitely coming from the bearings. Will be replacing them this weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
