    Hey all. Not sure if this is the right forum, but I'm hearing a strange niose from my right/rear wheel area.
    It only occurs when I braking, so I assume it's the rotors or something. It sounds as if there is some crud on the rotor, because you can hear the grinding with a "frequency": it occurs faster when the wheels are going faster, and slows down with the car.

    Any ideas?
    Also, what are good ways to clean crap off the brake assembly?

    I've only had the car for about 5,000 miles. I've never braked hard. So I assume I have enough of everything left.
