So i bought a 2022 Citroen C4 L and after a few days of driving some strange noise appeared. when i break car makes a noise that sounds like plastic rubbing on asphalt.
Brakes already changed, the bottom looks alright, but sound is still there. What can make this noise

Dumb question but on a 2022 Citroen, is this still covered by warranty? Might be worth just having a Citroen shop deal with it

Holy cow. You put on some distance mate.

#

So, when you say the brakes were already changed, front or rear or both? Are you able to lift the car and pull off the wheels to inspect?

Ok. What you’ll discover is something has come loose or was installed incorrectly. For a grinding like that if the pads are new, I’m actually wondering if one of the pads was installed backwards or something like that. Did it happen as soon as the brakes were changed? And did they do pads + rotors, anything else?

Ok, good move. That makes me wonder if not brake related. Are your fender liners securely fastened?
