Test drive on the the weekend, brakes everything felt great, then a metal on metal scrapping sound appeared under braking, yuk. Pulled over checked wheel play and drives side had to much play, thought it was the wheel bearing adjustment, cruised home. Checked it out wheel bearing ok, at the end it was a worn out tie rod, it would push against the stone guard and rub on disk. Got two new tie rods fitted, all good.
The brake pedal feels lighter easier to push, the car pulls up 100% better. Very happy...
