Noisy Calipers

Share this page

A little more information. I’m getting a knocking sound from left front after sharp slow turn. If I step on the brakes it stops briefly. I realize that pads and pins have to be a little loose in order to work. Would a sticky caliper contribute to the pad making noise. Replaced brake hoses with braided and the brakes are still grabbing from time to time. Rear passengers drum was grabbing but I adjusted it. Any thoughts? No play in the wheels so I’m not thinking bearing.
 
Occasionally I have the same issue on the front right brake also when I’m turning. Also it goes away when I brake. Like I said, it’s only occasionally.
