Does it only happen right after you've started the engine and begin to accelerate? If so, that's normal -- it's the ABS self test.

The brakes pads and rotors have been changed. The right wheel bearing hub was changed. It's always grinding when taking off and braking under 10 mph....it does it at every stoplight.. any ideas

were the pads and rotors bedded correctly when you replaced them? if not you may need to re-surface both pads and rotors and follow the bedding process.

Does bedding really make a difference. The brake companies say no it doesn't... even brembo says no

it depends on the parts you bought. if they have already been bedded by the manufacturer, then you wouldnt have to.

Did you fix your problem G35phile? Was it the wheel bearing?

Did you check the compression rod bushings? Try to lupe swaybar bushings? See if that helps

I believe the compression rod bushing will cause squeak and other noises if they're worn out. I checked my car and the right front bushing was ripped, i bought a new set of Energy bushing to replace it. Will post the update when i'm done.

Your car might have something else not the CR bushing, just give it a quick look since you've already replaced the wheel bearing and breaks.
