[earpl]

how old is the car, how many miles? is it like a rubbing noice + how loud is it

[ytsport]

its 2002, it can get quite loud sumtimes depends on how hard i go in the bend .

it sounds like two bits of metal rubbing each other

Have you checked there isn't a stone trapped in the shield? That can sound like the noise you describe.

[earpl]

sounds like the shield is too close to the disk needs bending back a bit

I've got a similar problem too

The noise happens when driving uphill, turning left.

I've taken the car to Toyota several times but the problem is still there.

The problem is only intermittent (sp)

A friend told me that the brake disc could be warped.

If anyone know what I can do to fix it please let me know

[earpl]

if its warped disks, new disks. i need 2 new ones on the pfront.

Could be you have something stuck between the break pad and disc or that your pads have worn too low. My girlfriends brothers Clio made a similar noise from the front right that was due to his brake pad had worn too low and was making sounds even when he didnt brake strangely! just a thought. If you can, have a look at the discs and check for any fresh looking scratches.

Surely Toyota would of found the problem on my many visits to them
