Hey All, have a fun one started with my D3, when turning sharply to the right i have a grinding metal sound like pads on the rear right only. I have pulled the wheel off and checked if anything appear loose but couldn't see anything or any backing plates etc with damage or hitting. wheel back on a road tested and noted the same again, if you take a round about to the right you can hear it.

i did not the left rear drum/disc felt a lot hotter than the right? ill try the brake bible and adjust the shoes for the EPB but was wondering if anyone has encountered anything like it. Maybe a spring retainer broken or loose in the rear Park brakes and allowing the shoe to hit the drum with centrifugal force when cornering ? I need to get a 15mm 12point socket yet to be able to remove the callipers to get the disc off to check. any leads would be great.
