Speaking of rotors...my car is making some terrible moaning sounds of its
own. It also does the high pitch screetch, but the car shaking, moaning is
far scarier. I don't think it's the pads as I also get a whine when turning
slightly one way, which leads me to believe the rotors are warped. Just want
to know if the gas 505 rotors are the same as their diesels brethren. I am
assuming they are.
