Subject: What are "sliders?"

Date: 	Sun, 2 Nov 1997 23:15:15 +0000





Heard an awful screeching sound (metalic) coming from

wheel area.  Thought a brake had frozen, or metal was

grinding.....



Had car towed to mechanics.  They said it was the slider(s)?

"Easy Fix.  No explanation as to why it would have occurred

on a 7 month old '97 M."



What is a slider?  Any one ever had a similar problem?

Any idea why one (more?) would do whatever they were doing

to make that G-awful sound?



thanks, liz
