Brakes have been grinding these past few weeks, checked pads and shoes and they were fine, but both my cylinders were split so I took them to the garage and had them replaced. But I can still hear the grinding with the cylinders replaced. I can hear it mostly first thing in the day when I use the car but after braking a bit while driving the noise fades away. Does anyone know what it is? Its definatly coming from the back.

I've not had a new hand brake cable fiited mate. Like I said the grinding only starts when I first use the car on the day, once I have used the brakes a few times it slowly goes. I thought it might have been corrosion who something like that but the geezer who did the cylinders said he cleaned all the crap off. I think I'll have to go back there tomorrow.
