weird noise from front right wheel???

[Wolfy]

i still cant figure out what this noise is!!! it sounds like metal rubbng but in an uneven way. i thought it was the rotor rubbing unevenly but my mechanic said it was fine, he also checked the bearings and said they were fine too! wat can this be? its not effecting anything, its just an annoying sound that makes my car sound like a junker! it only happens when im driving at low speeds, the faster i go the less sound it makes... someone please help!!!???

It could be the dust shield rubbing against the rotor?? Does it change as you turn?

When does it happen?

I would suggest checking your pad slides (the ones that snap into the caliper bracket) if you've recently had your brakes done. Sometimes they come into contact with the rotor and cause pulsing noises... VERY annoying lol

pad slides? wats that? are those the wire loops that hold the brake pad on?

They sit in the caliper mount. Its where the pads make contact (at the top and bottom) there is that thin piece of metal that clips into the bracket.
