Brakes Ford Falcon AU III Forte

[ford_mytoy]

Hello Everyone,

I have got a Falcon AU III forte and recently I have got the front & rear brakes done. By this I mean, both rotors and pads have been changed. I have used RDA Slotted rotors and Bendix Heavy Duty Pads for both front & rear.

RDA Rotors
Front - RDA502S
Rear - RDA503S

Bendix Heavy Duty Pads
Front - DB1375-HD
Rear - DB1376-HD

I choose these parts as I do fair bit of towing.

The parts were fitted by a qualified mechanic with 20 years experience.
Since I have got these fitted, there is noise coming from the wheels like metal to metal rubbing noise. I took it back to the mechanic and he said that the noise is normal in these brakes and it would go with time. I have now driven more than 1000km and the noise is still there. The rubbing noise is there even if I am not applying brakes. The noise is not constant and only comes when the wheel has completed the circle. So, when the wheel turns half way there is no noise and when it turns other half, I can hear the noise. The noise is more audible at low speeds.

It seems to me that the noise is coming from the rear wheels. I am not sure if this noise is related to the brakes as the noise is always there when driving doesnt matter if I am using the brakes or not.

I would like some expert advice here.

Thank You,
Sean
