When I owned my shop. I had a regular customer, that brought me all their vehicles. They came in asking if I could put brakes on their 40ft Motor home. I didnt have room to put that in my garage so I went to their house to do it. Needless to say I pulled the wheel off and their grind was a rock between the backing plate and rotor. Needless to say I put the wheel back on and went home. I pulled the rock out of course.

I appreciate that fact that your not a scam artist. I get tires at shops, and that's about it. Even then, they try and hustle me. When 20 years ago, first car, I had a mechanic at midas try to tell me I needed a knew rack. I'm like dude, get the duck out of here. I need my tire patched. 25 bucks, I'm not looking to spend 600. 00, or whatever it would of been. I think you was tryin to get in on that there.

really? this is the only time youve had this happen? in this past year at a nissan dealership ive removed at least 20 rocks from brake calipers/dust shields. i get excited thinking i got a brake job, but no just rocks. maybe just more common with nissans for some reason
reply

for once i totally agree. if you can remove a rock from the brakes, i too can remove a rock from the brakes. well i guess it depends on how big that rock actually is. if its boulder size i might need some help. nice job mr O just the same.

One day I was pulling in and all of a sudden I heard the grinding noise. I was like it's probably just a rock. I took the wheel off snd this big rock was stuck between rim and strut. It had to be at least a 2 pound rock

A few others have beaten me to the practical joke line for dealing with the customer. Giver her a heart attack re the cost of a massive pull-down and rebuild, then tell her what it really is and costs (probably nothing.

I've had a rock in mine as well now it grinds and don't know what it is. perhaps the caliper has shifted somehow doing suspension work. But upon second inspection, I hope I find a rock. lol

That's a gold nugget for a dishonest mechanic! I never heard of that one before. Maybe she drives on a gravel road. We don't have any around here unless they are repaving a road.

Can guarantee the majority of brake noise I get is crap picked up off the road and stuck somewhere on the brakes. Usually compressed air line or hosepipe works wonders
