Re: Squealing sound coming from right side

OK so I had the rear pads changed today but the van still has the squealing sound, just like rubbing a hand against a window but it's not present all the time and it's not too loud, it can be heard only after some time of driving the van. Is it possible that the front pads are getting stuck because of brake dust and not releasing the disc entirely?.

When I took the front wheel I hold at the 6 and 12 o'clock positions and there is no play, but if I hold it at 3 and 9 it will have a only a little, the inner tie rods must have worn out, that's something i'll do ASAP, what would it be the consequences of not replacing them and how hard is it to replace them?.

Thanks in advance

Oscar
