as of late ive been experiencing and odd sound when i brake.
it doesnt happen all the time but when it does it makes a weird machine sound (the girlfriend says it sounds like a transformer
)
i can also feel the brake pedal jolt back a couple of times when it does this
i thought maybe in need of new brake pads?

Agreed
