a few questions.. issues..

Hey guys,

So, as of lately, I've gotten some noises in my car that I'm not too happy with. Here we go:

1) The brakes have a rubbing noise when you hit them at a slower speed (woosh woosh woosh) but don't do it when you hit them at high speed. It's only when you're coming to a stop or something. These are brand new pads and rotors all the way around. They've only been on for a few months. They really shouldn't need resurfaced or anything? They don't look bad or anything like that - they just look normal. Thought it might just go away. Been there for a week. Any ideas..??

2) I have a steering clunk. Not just the normal steering column one (which is still annoying - how do you fix it..??) but the suspension seems to clunk when I'm going at low speeds and making turns. Such as in a parking lot or something. I have IRL's, good tires, and Sportlines. Never heard this until recently. Any ideas?

Any clue as to what these issues are and/or how I could fix them? Any help would be great.. Thanks guys..

The brakes, is it a sqeaking? I put new pads on that I got from Advance and the squeaked like hell. My dad had the same problem from brake pads he got for his G6 at Advance, also.
