hey all,
my friend has an '01x with about 51k on the clock. the problem she's having is when she comes to a stop, it can be mild or hard, the brakes make this groaning/grinding sound. the harder you stop, the worse it sounds. i'm pretty good with cars, and to me it doesnt sound like worn pads rubbing on rotors, cause it isn't really a bad screeching or anything like that. i could be wrong though, i'm new to explorers. my initial thought is maybe a wheel bearing, but it doesn't do it unless you step on the brakes so...
any ideas? lemme know if more info is needed.
