Scraping grinding noise at speeds below 20
Scraping grinding noise at speeds below 20
07 maxima sl with 205k. Brake pads and rotors replaced 6 mos ago and used for a month with no problems. Left outside without use for 4 months and took it out yesterday and noticed scraping/grinding noise only at speeds below 20. At speeds above 20, no issue. Need help troubleshooting. Thank you
Not an issue. Car sat for 4 months and had surface rust form on rotors. Now as you drive and you brake, the surface rust will be swept away and the rubbing noise will stop. Give it some time, noise will go away.
Just curious. Why would it scrape only at speeds below 20, but not hard braking or high speeds. I can feel the scraping and pulsating in the pedal simultaneously. Anything related to ABS?
the noise is similar to this

The problem persists after a month of driving. So, based on some troubleshooting videos, i removed the abs fuse and the sound went away. So it seems abs related. Now how do i figure out if the problem is with abs sensors or abs module. How many abs sensors are even there on this 07 maxima
