Iv'e Since Yesterday Had an annoying Scrapping/Squeeking/Grinding Noise coming from the Front left Wheel. This Sound is only heard whilst the Car is moving and under braking it sort of fades into the background and then comes back when the brake is released.

What Could the Problem be?

Cheers James

Yeah, ut whats wrong with them? i drove it earlier with my uncle walking next to me, and he seems to think it could be a small stone in there. Would new pads be causing this?as i only got the car Saturday morning and it was fine on the 80 mile journey home. Cheers

some pads have an early warning bit, like an extra piece of metal that sticks out, might be low pads?

is it brand new?

Its a Corsa C SRi 1.8 16v 02 Reg, but i dont think warranty applies as it has 39,000 on the clock. The pads seem new so maybe it is that extra bit of metal.
Whats the price for new pads if i need them? Thanks
