Z1 2-Piece Rear Rotors????

slam1918 · 06-02-2014, 06:16 AM

behind the front rotors there is a thin metal plate that keeps dirt from flying onto the rotor. If you remove a front tire you can either feel & or see it behind the rotor. I replaced my front struts at the same time and accidentally bent the plate so it was making contact with the rotor and made noise at low speed.

The dust shield? No I didnt bend those. There is no noise coming from the front rotors. It's all in the rear. The ebrake shoes are rubbing slightly on the disk. Im going to take it apart tonight and try to solve this.

Ok I pulled everything off expecting to see wear marks on the inside of the disk where the ebrake shoes grab and....nothing. Looked perfect inside there. My adjustments on the star were perfect on both sides. No visible drag or wear marks anywhere on the disks at all.

Could this just be the pads sound on a rough new disk? I just have never heard this noise before on new disks. If I go and hand turn my front wheels they are completely silent.

This is what it sounds like while driving...
