    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

My front brake makes some rubbing noise how much noise if any do the front brakes make?
 
What kind of noise? During what kind of operation?

Just little squeaky noises? Prolonged squealing? Grinding sounds?

My front brakes (with plenty of meat on the pads) make soft occasional squeaking noises when braking at low speeds, this is normal.
 
If it makes a grinding noise (metal on metal) when you brake your pads are prolly shot. If so replace them before they jack up your rotors. Look down from the top of the calipers and see how thick they are.

I wouldnt get too worked up about a little squeal once in a while as long as it isnt dragging. I live next to a steel plant so the steel dust gets all over EVERYTHING including down in my brakes, so mine are always a little loud.
 
Thanks

Thanks

Thanks Matt
