+1. Just check it. If you don't, you could score the rotor and that's bad.Originally Posted by WarmPepsi

How many miles on the brake pads? It's also possible the brake pads are bad and need to be replaced.

+1 I wouldnt be surprised if the pads are worn down and thats wats causing the noise.

my bet is your pad is gone, and you're metal on metal between the pad backing plate and the disc.

Usually when there's a rock in there it's a constant griding or squealing noise that will change when the brakes are applied (sometimes not, depending on rock placement).Originally Posted by evogsrviii

A squealing or grinding noise when the brakes are applied makes me think it's bad pads, since most pads are designed to squeal when they're worn to a certain point.
