When you press the brake, do you get a short hiss from the passenger side? If so then that's normal, if it's continually hissing there's a problem. How does the pedal feel?
Sounds like something to do with a servo / vacuum if it's constant hissing.
If it's a scraping noise, then it would be worth cleaning the pads with a wire brush and see if it helps.
Bedding brakes in takes 15minutes after they've been fitted, not 3months + Last edited by Ape on Fri Feb 25, 2011 3:50 am; edited 1 time in total
