2009 connect rear breaks

Postby pestguard1 » Thu Mar 15, 2018 6:48 pm

I have had new rear and front discs and pads fitted about 5 months ago , together with new break callipers but every morning when I pull away , the back breaks are making a grinding noise , this disappears after a few brake pedal presses , is this a common problem , or am I missing something that needs looking at

The same on my 2008 connect lwb (german, left hand driven). New breaks at the end of last year.
Have a nice day.

Are you sure it's not just rust build up on the discs? This time of year they will rust up pretty quickly over night due to almost constantly being wet
