Brakes That Grind...not Squeak!

[spruce]

Hi all,

 

i've looked at a lot of the messages about squeaky brakes on the C4, but have not come across much discussion on grinding brake noise...which is the problem I am experiencing. Its not much but just as you come to a stop the brakes give a little grinding sound, not sure if its the front or back? Ive only had the car a few weeks and have already taken it back to the dealer who had a look, cleaned the calipers, etc and said its a common issue as they get full of brake dust and make the subsequent noise. After getting it back from the dealer the noise had gone (hurray!) only to now return a few days later. The cars done 14,000 miles so should I just get some new pads or keep on to the dealer to sort it out?

 

Any advice would be much apriciated!

 

Cheers
