It has to be Brake brads steel on steel (or caliper rubbing) or wheel bearings. Not much else to cause it.

If it's done a few kays, fit new wheel bearings anyway, and check pad condition.

it was a noise like a stone in the tread. the disc is a bit out of round and hits the caliper or pushes the pads back or something like that. getting fixed Friday.
