It really didn't sound that bad. Then it stopped making noise completely. Then it went BANG. Had a squeal but no honks, rattles or grinding and no burning until it totally let go. Felt and operated just fine. Hindsight is wonderful but at that time we didn't even really know they were an issue yet. I knew it was going but honestly the symptoms were so mild that I had no idea it was going so fast and decided to wait until my next service appointment. It was a dumb move and I have preached the "do it now" gospel ever since.
