That marble is anti-lock brakes! They come on earlier when the pads aren't bedded to try to stop you better. Not an issue though! As always you are most welcome!

That's interesting and makes sense. If I remember correctly, the marbles sensation seemed to be at the brakes, but not through the brake pedal. And maybe I don't remember too well now with the passing of time. Whatever, no worries now!

Breaker: what if it squeals intermittently during traffic while the brake wasn't engaged? Like for example, during frequent stop and go traffic, the brake squeal and then when let the brake go and the car rolls at around 15 mph, it still squeaks like metal to metal grinding together. Pretty annoying.
