Pinkfloydperson Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 I just bought a 98 Legacy Outback Wagon last week and put rotors, pads and a ballpoint on it yesterday to get it through PA inspection. It now stops great, but when I go into a corner, left or right, at almost any speed I'll hear a grinding noise coming from the back of the car. It goes away as soon as the cars traveling straight again. I was thinking it could be a wheel bearing going bad and causing the rotor to tilt while cornering. Also the rear passenger side caliper's slider piece was so badly corroded that I ended up sanding a bit off of it to get it to slide in and out of the sleeve. The caliper can be moved my hand just a hair back and forth now, but I don't think it moves enough to make it contact the pads with the rotors during turns. Anyone have any other ideas? I'm thinking of just saying F it and shell out the $$ to do all four wheel bearings. Cars got 250,000 on it anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
