i drive a 2002 ford focus zx3 dohc, and heard grinding and metal scraping on passenger side wheel. i took the wheel off and noticed that the bottom of my brake pad is touching the center piece of the rotor (as of my knowledge that i see) and grabbed the sides of the rotor and saw that it is very loose(as in the whole thing that holds the wheel rotor and stuff behind it), i was wondering what part(s) do i need to change in order to fix this. PLEASE HELP!
may just be cv centre nut loose
if u can and have knowledge to do so get the torque specs for all the bolt and tighten them down and put thread lock on them. if u do not have a torque wrench, tighten them down tight but not to tight so udon'tt break threads. but judging bye how much u know id just bring to mechanic and have him do it.
FRONT OR REAR? EITHER WAY PARK THE CAR. IF ITS A REAR WHEEL THE WHEEL BEARING IS SHOT FOR SURE IF ITS THE FRONT WHEEL YOU HAVE FRONT WHEEL DRIVE AND IF THAT WHEEL RIPS OFF IT WILL COST 2 GRAND PLUS THE AXLE SO LIKE 3 GRAND TO FIX ALL THE BROKEN BITS. DO NOT DRIVE THIS CAR IT WILL KILL YOU OR THE PERSON YOU HIT THE WHEEL IS SECONDS FROM COMING OFF.
