I would have searched but im in a hurry to get out of the house and make this post. When i put my car in reverse its fine but sometimes when im rolling back itll make a funny noise. Now ive experimented and ive let it roll back with the clutch completly depressed, in gear, out of gear. I also tried in neutral and it still did it. But only when my car is going backwards. Its a sound that feels like somethings rubbing then suddenly lets go. Odd sound and makes me look like a real noob while parking cuz itll make a funny noise and people standing around think i cant drive stick. Anyone have any idea? Thanks in advance.

 

hows your brakes

 

Are you pointing my brakes out as a problem or are you just generally asking how they feel? In term of braking power theyre still strong but if your implying that they may be rubbing i guess that is a possibility.

 

my old '91 made a loud grinding sound when I would reverse, changed the rear pads and it stopped

 

That's wierd becuase mine started making noise right after changing the pads with new ones.

 

i have that problem, when i reverse it feels/sounds like im grinding something..

i found out if i keep my foot just slightly on the brake, it wont do it anymore, of course i gotta let go when i give it gas..

it's embarassing but if people around arent going to buy me new brakes, then **** what they think..

 

Check your pads, then check if the slide pins are seized. Most of the time though it's pads, and it happens to both S13 and S14's

 

it could be the piston"..you know how u have to turn it in..and not use the c-clamp.. it could be stripped/seized
