Groaning Noise When Coming To Stop
I'm hearing a low groaning sound that lasts about 1 second whenever I come to a stop. No driving issues. It doesn't seem like the brakes and the clutch is IN when I hear it. What are the posibilities ???

Break Squeal
I was hearing some break squeal recently. Then I put new front pads on and bedded them and I still heard squeal. I bedded again today and after cool down I STILL have it.
Could it be one of those caliper/pad springs ??
I use stock pads and rotors and remove caliper pins to replace pads, don't remove the caliper.
And its not the wear indicator thingy on the pads
And the brakes work great ........

Drifting
Have you ever noticed it when pushing the clutch in from first gear coming to a stop? Or perhaps even when letting the clutch out after a 1-2 or 2-3 shift?
If so I have this same problem and we could definitely both use some help on this. I'm about to try Ranger's method of fluid change in my clutch too.

I change wheels and brake pads alot. Sometimes I don't hear the sound. So I think its just pads/rotors.
I stoped worrying about it.

Same issue
i have the same issue 1 out of 5 times I take the car out. I've heard the noise when coming to a very slow stop and when accelerating very slowly. Today I only heard it when accelerating slowly from a stop. When it happens, it happens each time I give it very little gas for rpm to change right when the car starts moving. Did any of the previous posters find the cause? I drive the car all winter and only recently noticed this issue
Note: I realize that this is a super old post, my car is a c7z. I had a similar issue on a bmw m4, it turned out to be rocks stuck between brake shield and rotor
