2008 Kia Sportage Repair Question
Mileage: 17,000 miles.
Metal dragging/nails on chalkboard noise
Answer
i would have the brakes checked again. it sounds like something is hitting like hardware or backing plates
Roy
Thanks. I took it in, said rear calipers were seized so rear pads were jamming up in clips, overheating and making the noise. They suggested new rear pads (still at 40 percent) and caliper servicing
you mean the pins for the calipers?? it is common for that but dont think it will explain the noise you described.
Roy
I don't know what they mean, I guess I just have to trust what they say and pay for the new pads and caliper servicing?
Thanks again for your answers.
how did you make out??
Roy
So, they replaced the rear brake pads, serviced the calipers and so far the noise seems to be gone. I really hope that's it. Thank you so much for your help! I think it's wonderful that you help people by answering their questions.
