    Grumbling Noise

    so I just started getting this sort of low "grumbling/dragging" noise from the back when coming to a stop. If I hit the brakes hard and do a quick stop I don't get the noise its really only at the slow down braking when I am almost coming to the stop. Any ideas

    Maybe a sticky caliper or piston?

    If 1 piston sticks more than another, the brake pad might will apply uneven pressure and be slightly crooked.

    I agree probably cailper or hose problem if you take the wheel off and check the pads one is probably worn more then the others.....

    See if a caliper is dragging. The wheel might be "hot" if it is. Pull them and rebuild.

    Good luck,
