Brakes Or Wheelbearings
#1
Hey guys....

The Svt is making some wierd nosies seems that theres a slight grinding coming from the wheel. which wheel yet... not too sure.

I've come to the conclusion its one of three things...

Wheel Bearings

Sticking caliper

Warped rotor.


Symptoms: low speed crusing. i feel a slight grinding in the wheel. and hear a rubbing noise coming from outside the car.... if i tap the brakes. the sound goes away for a few seconds then comes back... at highway speeds i dont really feel anything.

oh yeah, the wheel doesnt vibrate while braking so that may rule out warped rotor

brakes were changed 15k ago. and from what i can see the pads are fine.... and its also not a metal on metal type of grinding.

any ideas?

tonight i'm going to jack up the car when i get home from work and spin each of the wheels hopefully i can find the cause.
