Hi all,
When I go to stop brakes work well. When I get to about 1 - 2 mph I start to hear a grinding from front passenger side. Only happens when I press real hard, I can come to a stop in about 20 feet without the noise coming. Also does not happen when I brake in reverse.
I took the tire off & checked the pads, still life on them. Also I did not notice any gouging in the rotor, it seems rather smooth inside & outside. I have not taken the brake cylinder off completely to further examine it (yet).
Would a cracked pad do this? Not seeing any other visible signs of wear / damage.
