help - got carnew in jul 2008 -all fine until 2 months ago - started with very occasional squeal like noise from rear of car - however since then has worsened dramatically - still intermiten but when there very loud and sounds like metal on metal - sometimes goes away with braking , sometimes dissapears when driving - when there it is unbearable - had brakes checked and cleaned last week and all ok - took car into toyota today for accelorator repair and asked them to check out noise - told me was not the brakes/pads - only way to get rid of this would be to maybe !!! replace discs etc at a cost of 275 quid - and that this of course was not covered under warranty - i asked her if discs were definitely causing problem and she could not answer me - but she agreed that with only 16500 miles on clock seems low mileage to be having to replace these ( if problem at all )
im really worried as it is a lot of money to pay out without knowing if this is problem - am a student nurse and widowed and money tight - to think i traded in my jag for this car tosave money - she gave me cust servs tel no but wanted some back up info before i write to them - can anyone help - whats the normal changeover time of these discs - bearings - could they have been faulty from the start. any help/info gratefully required
