screeching in one of the rear wheel

Hi there!

From some time ago I had a screeching in the left rear wheel (like the typical wear brake pad one) when I turn the car all left.

Some idea about what can be?

Cheers Eduardo

It could be a stone/pebble or piece of gravel or grit in the brake. I've had this before made a hell of a screech. You can try and free it by braking and accelerating hard reversing and braking ect. Just a sugestion

Thanks Konabikes11,

That was my first thougth (and I hope that will be the issue), but the screech appears only when I turn left

Very same on mine. Brake pads in just one side. I have done everything to the pads: slots, cuts, etc. Next step is to swap pads from between tyres or skim the disc a bit. Puma 110" SW

Had the same problem a couple of weeks ago on Salisbury Plain - stone trapped between the disc and stone guard.

Guards are easy to remove so might be worth a quick check.

So annoying especially when you can't free it very easily and you have to drive past people

Fast reversing with sudden stop most-times dislodges stones.
