    I recently took my tundra to the repair shop and they diagnosed it with a bearing problem. Right front and left back where changed and at the same time front and back break pads as well, however the main reason I took the truck in was because of a noise coming from under the break pedal. It happens specifically when I'm slowly breaking and feels like a peace of metal barely touching another one from underneath and I can hear a strong metal sound (just when I break slowly) like if its gonna brake any time from touching each other peaces. Anyways before I go round 2 on spending I would like to have an idea what might be, its frustrating me so bad because I'm a woman doesn't mean they can charge me on what they think the truck might have.

    See if you can get an audio or video clip so that we can hear it. As far as wheel bearings, it is usually recommended to change them in pairs...ie both fronts if one of them is bad. They changed the brake pads and didn't turn the rotors on the lathe? What did the old pads look like?

    Hi. So are you saying that you feel like the pedal and linkage are crunchy for lack a a better term?

    As far a being a woman, nah they'll screw over guys too.

    And the soundestest of advices are now yours courtesy your good friend Spraynard (see below)!

    When you find yourself sharing a tender moment with a special someone and the throes of passion overtake you always cry out/exclaim the name of the person with which you are currently entangled; never someone else's name.

    I would said is not a crunchy sound is more like a cat playing with a door stopper (those wiggly ones) and I can feel it under the truck. anyways answering about the old break pads they where really worn out and cracked a little bit. The front bearing was really broken I was told for going on the snow. The back one was in perfect condition.

    What you are describing sounds like worn brake pads. If they replaced 2 maybe theres another that needs to be done. Typically - almost always you do the pairs at the same time, front /back. Otherwise it could even be a stone lodged into your brakes. Usually that would work itself out. Just my thoughts.
