e break????

[MethodMan97]

for the past couple days my car has been making noise while i drive kinda a ratteling sounds like 1 click every time the wheel turns fully. if i pull up the e break just a little while driving the noise goes away... today it turned into a loud pound of a noise so i can't drive it anymore...i think something has come loose.... any 1 know where i could find the problem??? if it is the e break would i just beable to remove it and drive without one ?

the pins for your emergency brake pads go into the brake shield when the seat on the backing plates rust out the emergency brakes explode in the brake disc. happened to my e30 and e36. backing plates are around 50$ from bmw(only place you can get them local) spring set about 50$ pads no clue howmuch they cost...but you have to pull your rear axel i believe so you might aswell do the berrings so parts and labour your looking at 350-500

well if you dont want to pay to get it fixed remove the rotor and pull the parts out. it wont pass safty inspection. otherwise you should be fine. but wait for someone else to chime in before you go do it
