[QUOTE="Redtag, post: 3895897, member: 70933"] Your mechanic does not want to replace the pads because they probably have lots of life left... they are just noisy. For the caliper pistons to be contacting the rotor it would not only have to have worn the pad away but the backing plate part of the pad would have had to fall out. If that happened the pistons would be extended to the point that you would likely be leaking brake fluid Lol I have seen people nurse a car or truck back in like that before but you would have little to no brakes and the grinding would be constant.
