check the caliper bushings they might need to be changed.

=>This is on my 88 16v rocco.
=>
=>I'm getting a grinding noise and damage to the front pass side 
=>rotor when I go in reverse and turn to back up to the left.
=>
=>This started a few weekes ago and I thought it might just bad 
=>time for new rotors/pads so I ordered ATE power disc's and Mintex 
=>pads from the Potters and slammed them on the car this week.
=>
=>Well, same thing is happening even with all the new gear.  I 
=>didn't see anything wrong with the caliper or the carrier (but 
=>then I wasn't looking very close) and I can't figure out why this 
=>only happen when I make a left while backing up.
=>
=>Any thoughts, ideas or smart ass remarks are welcome.  Thoughts 
=>and Ideas's are usefull, the smart ass remarks are so that I have 
=>something to laugh at since I'm stuck at work bored outta my skull.
