Brake grind

I have sometimes a grinding noise at low speeds and a little squealing too on my passenger rear brake area. It sometimes gets worse when I press on the brake lightly and it does make this noise without the brakes being engaged on my part.

This is a very common problem. Happened to me and many others. New rotors and pads fixed it as well as lubing the slide pins.
