Skoda Fabia - Skoda Fabia frequent brake discs and pads problems 28 Mar 2013 (Forum)
I'm loathe to take it in to get them replaced yet again only for it to happen again in another 6 months.

I am wondering if it could be causing small stones to get lodged in the brake discs? -

Audi A4 B6 (2001 - 2005) - Suspension issue and to replace with sport or not 10 Oct 2007 (Forum)
Indeed I was pleased to see that the drivers door placard which gives recommended tyre pressures quotes the rim and tyre combination that I have on the new wheels. Anyways I got a puncture due to a screw through this tyre, and when I threw the car on the lift I noticed that the wheel was hard to turn. The calliper was binding a little, but after a generous welt with a hammer it seemed to free up, however then I noticed that the wheel was fouling a little on the wheel arch cover just at the top of the spring. -
