Both are possible. A full brake inspection is often helpful when noise or vibration is hard to isolate.
Many repairs and inspections can be handled where the vehicle is safely parked. If a job requires shop equipment or conditions are unsafe, Pete will be clear about the next best step.
The year, make, model, town, symptoms, recent repairs, warning lights, and photos of the area can help narrow down the right parts and next steps.
