So after a very muddy week at work my front left brake was grinding. I figured mud or a rock had got in the brakes, so after doing the normal drive forward and then reverse to free obstructions it did not go away, so I took the wheel off, visually inspected and noticed the backing had come off the back of the pad (thin piece of metal)on the outside, so I removed it and tossed it, put everything back together, to my surprise the grinding noise was back with a vengence. It sounds as though something is rubbing against the piece of metal that is behind the brake rotor, but I could see nothing in there.
Suggestions?
