Hi replaced all disks and greased up claipers etc everything was moveing freely anyway the rear hub nut came loose on teh left the other day, I have a woop woop woop sound from teh reari have noticed this (pic) but it looked fine last week

could it be a bent calaiper? loose caliper?or just normal? pads are QFM brand new and bearings are brand new also no play in wheel

just looks like only half the pads contacting the disk, please note, the bottom area about half a center meter above where the black paint is im aware that's not supposed to be touched by the pad, im just worried how its 2 tone colour

also been about 1200klm since I did brakes, othersides fine

If the pads are still new, it might take a bit of time for them to start making proper even contact.

Though if your wheel nuts were loose, that could have meant your rotor was contacting the pad unevenly as you were driving.

Was the "woosh woosh" stopping when you were applying the brakes?

its more of a woop woop woop then a wooosh.

its a sedan

also seems to stay the same when applieing the brakes, sometime alittle louder

its more noise then anything,

also tried applieing handbrake slightly while driveing but still there

I have to say to me it sounding more like a rear wheel bearing and hub assembly..I changed mine a couple of weeks ago, my rear end at low speed was making all sorts of noises...For some reason the rear hub assemblies are made of soft metal I pressed it on only turning the wheel on the press..Mine was the L/h rear and the cv shaft was completely dry I think ford forgot to put lube on it..Covered in some sort of rusty dust..
