I'm getting a grinding noise when I slow down, and I know its not my brakes, I just replaced them.
It occurs around 15 or less mph and sounds like it might be the wheel bearings. A mechanic told me it could be bad front struts that are vibrating at low speeds.
Has anyone had anything similar happen with their M3?
Could be the tire tread is particularly noisy at certain speeds. What tires are you running? Sumitomo tires in the M3 size are particularly noisy, from what I heard on a friend's car.
Wheel bearings make more noise the faster you go.
Are your tires worn unevenly?
