Hey
All my brakes were done and all good and never had any issues, but now I have this Wu Wu Wu sound like something is rubbing on the front.

When I start the car the sound is not there, when I start driving you hear this sound, but when I get down the road it goes away.

Its not a grinding or scraping noise, its more like a rubbing.

There is nothing on the brakes and are all new.

Any idea what this may be, maybe some bearings or something?

Hope you like my sound effects LOL

Possibly sticking caliper

after a run feel each alloy wheel to see if any heat in them. If one wheel is hot then thats your sticking caliper.

also it is possible to fit the front brake pads back to front so maybe that has been done.
 
Well the sound is now gone but my brakes are juddering when I brake at high speeds. they are brand new brakes and worked great for 2 months, I cant see them being warped, they were the top of the range BluePrints which Ive had before.
I think I will take it back to my mate.
I live on the beach so I am wondering if the recent storms have had something to do with it, maybe sand and salt have gotten into somewhere.

Juddering on braking is usually warped discs - Were the discs replaced or just the pads?
 
All the discs and pads were new, he also cleaned and renewed the calipers.
If they are warped I will ask him to replace it free as I have only done 1000 miles since the brakes have been fitted.
 
I heard a vroom vroom pop pop the other day from a chav fiesta LOL

Got to love the new sound of the new 2020 cars -- Uhhhmmmm Uhhhmmmmm, No crackles or rev sounds.
