My little nephew came up with the "sound". It happens on moderate braking.
It's worse when I just start driving, but eventually disappears after 20 mins of driving. However, long periods of not braking, such as when on the highway, brings it back. If I leave it parked for a couple of hours, same thing happens.
The frequency of the "woop woop" sound is directly related to the speed of the car when I apply the brakes, and it eventually slows down and disappears as the car slows.
Seems like the pads are rubbing against a certain point in the drum, which causes the sound.
Any thoughts? How hard is it to work with drum brakes? Will I be able to take it out and inspect the inside?
