Hello lovely peeps in Omega land, hope everyones air con is keeping you lovely and cool and the fridge is topped up with a few cold ones

I recently changed my front pads on my 3.2 estate but after a few weeks i noticed a rubbing sound like that heard when pads are low. This rubbing sound only occured when i was braking to a halt and for a few revolutions of the wheel after starting off

Looked at the disc and noticed that there was a lip on the outer edge which i knocked / ground off but as i spinned the wheel i noticed that it seemed to "catch" on one part of the disc / pads. It looked like the disc was running true but anyway i bought new pads and discs and changed them.

The old "new" pads had wear marks at the top where the ridge was.

Refitted all the new bits but i still have the same problem, so neighbours cat got kicked! (as i have not got one) So i throw myself to the mercy of you guru's for some ideas

starters for ten----Leave the cat alone---and your problem is probably the flexi pipe collapsing internally

Are there any rubbing marks from the tyre on the shock upright? Is tyre wear even across the tread?

Now go and apologise to the cat.
