The groove isn't too bad yet... just a silver streak. I just went and got some Brakleen and sprayed the crap out of the brake caliper/disc/pads through the wheel spokes. Now it's perfectly quiet and works as it should. However, I'm going to keep a close eye on it in case I need to take off the caliper and fish out some debris. Maybe it's a sign for me to get a BBK.
