hi forum,


The dealer changed my brake pads about 30k miles ago

Now I'm hearing some grinding some times and I looked at the brakes

they look uneven

I found a picture of a person with with similar wear

Caliper sliders are sticking or you have one of your caliper pistons stuck. More than likely frozen slider pins. They need to be cleaned and regreased with silicone paste like Sil-Glyde or 3M Silicone Paste.
