nikkilevel27 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Hi all I have owned a 59 plate Ford Ka for 8 months. I have recently started hearing a grinding noise from the front of the car when i am coming to a stop. Any ideas what this could be and would warranty cover it? thanks!

delboy Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 sounds like disk's are worn or pads gone most prob pads 7 it will not be under warranty as it's a wer n tear part if you know what i mean go to a garage your familiar with not frauds & eplane the prob & they will do a free brake check for you you could try some brake & disk cleaner on the pads as they may just be dirty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greyscale Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 It'll be new discs and pads. It cost me £108 last time at an independent workshop. £48 parts, 3 hours labour at £20/Hr Edit: Also: Its dangerous to drive with knackered pads and disks. Limp it to a garage you trust not to rip you off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
