I heard this grinding sound sometimes when I stop..

It's been bugging me, this very light grinding sound. I've checked rotors, etc etc and I cannot find anything that is responsible for making the sound. Also at speeds above 60mph I feel a very faint wob wob wob sound. I changed to brand new rims, alignment and tires and I still hear and feel the same stuff.. anyone have a clue?

Bad bearing? Does it change when braking or turning? It could also be a bad CV joint.

I agree with BavarianFanatic on this, "I've checked rotors..." is the sound coming from the front or the rear of the your car?

Changes when turning and braking, my suspicion was with one of the suspension parts..

I had an issue like this. turned out to be the rear differential. Replaced under CPO. I had to ride with the shop foreman to point out the noise though because it was so subtle

Bad bearing or bearings, can you tell which side the sound is coming from?
