Hi All,

I'm a newy to the forum and have a bit of a problem with my rav with my brakes grinding, have had the car serviced at a toyota dealer 3 weeks ago, and im sure that if the pads were worn the service manager would have adviced. well i hope. here are the details of the car.

2011 rav4 CV (7 months old)

22,000kms

all city and highway driving

last service was at 20,000kms

The grinding sounds like metal to metal, has anyone expirienced this before? does anyone know how long the break pads should last?

any help would be appreciated.

Thank you

regards Marlon

My Work van was doing this a couple of weeks ago, a stone hd got up into the breaks and was making the noise, as soon as the van hit the back of the toe truck to go to the dealers it stopped, the stone fell out. It might be worth jacking the side of the car that is making the noise and see if you can loosen what ever it is.

I doubt it would be the breaks as the car is new and just serviced.

Thankd Brendan,

like i said i'm sure the service manager would have told me if there was a problem, I know i have done a lot of k's but surely they would last till at least 30-40,000 kms.

I'll jack it up and have a good look. hopefully that's the problem.
