Hey all,

I figured since I had such terrific help with my other thread, why not try to post up another problem that's been bugging me for awhile.

I've noticed that my 760GLE has been pulling to the right... also occasionally I will hear a very faint grinding noise when driving straight. Also, when beginning to accelerate and when slowing down (even without using the brake) there seems to be a slight vibration. What compounds the mystery is that I have snow tires on the car, which are noisy to begin with. Some have suggested a stuck caliper, but how would I go about checking this? Is it pretty straightforward for the DIY'er?

I've also read that a warped rotor can cause vibrations, but doesn't that only effect driving while braking?

Thanks
