Over the past month or so, since I got the car out of storage, i started noticing an odd problem.
After some highway driving, i noticed an odd sound. The only way i can describe it, is it sounds like a rock got stuck between the brake dust shield and the brake rotor. It doesn't go away when i press the brake pedal or tug on the hand brake... it does however go away when the car slows way down or comes to a stop (just before it stops) and it usually doesn't come back when i start rolling again.

Has anyone have that happen to them?
I wonder if it has to do anything with the rear end or even the carrier bearing on the driveshaft... i need to get under the car and see if i see anything out of the ordinary...
None of the wheels are coated more with brake dust either... none of the rotors look any different... i'm stumped...

I am posting this before I start digging more just in case someone had this issue before...
