Scraping noise from back wheels

[paud100]

All I got my brakes done a few weeks ago and since then I’ve noticed a noise from back of my 2.0tdi scirocco. I thought it might be a wheel bearing but not sure. Any ideas from these videos? Think it might just be something scraping on brakes?? I have a video on my phone but can’t seem to post it here.

Check the dust shields are not rubbing against the disc or that there is not a stone jammed between the shield or caliper and the disc. If it's been damp and the car has been sitting overnight it's normal to get a little noise on the first few applications of the brake until the surface corrosion rubs off.

It won't be a wheel bearing as that tends to more of a drone, rumbling type sound rather than a scraping sound.

If it started as soon as the brakes were replaced then that's the area to concentrate on. If a garage done the work take it back to them. Also worth checking all the wheel bolts have been tightened to the correct torque.

Thanks Cuprabob. Ya took off the alloy again today to check. It seems to be scraping at a particular point of the disc and gets harder to turn wheel at that point. Took another video. Would be really good if I could post video somewhere to get people’s opinion. Ya got brakes done at a VW dealer so will take it back..
