Grinding noise?

There is a grinding noise when I come to a complete stop. When I release the brake there is also a grinding noise. It is more apparent on ramps.

I had my rotors turned and pads(maybe??) changed approximately 5000 to10,000 mi ago.

thanks!

I have the grinding noise and break squeak from my left wheel. The grind noise is only at full stop. The squeaking varies from 45+Mph stops to Under 10Mph stops.

I'm looking at getting these:

This setup should resolve any noise issues.

Anyone vouch for these?

Hope this helps.

Is there any rare markings on your rotors? It could be the wear sensors off your brake pads. Check that.

sometimes caliper pistons may stick causing the brake pad on one side of the rotor to stay semi-engage even when the brake pedal is released. Most of the time fixing this may mean recompressing the piston when putting new pads on and then monitoring the wear on the new pads. For our car this is easier said than done, with the price of pads and all.
