Hi All. My rear brakes are making a grinding noise but pads seem ok.
Anyone else had this? How many miles would you get or have you got from your rears?
After parking up, they seize up a fair bit too even when car is parked in the garage and not left outside.
had it checked by Ford and they say all ok. Clearly not.

I have had this, brakes are quite noisey and the rears have needed encouraged when sat for a while. Just been serviced and ford also said they're fine

I have the same problem.
It is pretty annoying isn't it?

Check your discs.

Both front and rear discs were breaking up and getting hairline cracks on mine.

If they're cracking it, could be that they are catching the pads?
