It may be rust or dirt accumulating between the rotor and rotor shield. Check for this and remove any rust and scale present also check disc brake pads at the same time these can sometimes make a grinding noise.
Hope this helps

When calling to inquire or order - tell them the year, make, model (S, SL, SV, LE, SE, XE, etc.) Cab type (crew, extended, etc.) before paying. Have a look at the link below.
Check the water pump for leaks by its weep hole. Also remove its drive belt and see if its pulley is loose. if so replace the pump
The other items are the cooling fan, fan relay(if applicable) some models use a clutch, check clutch see if its engaging at proper temperature.
If you determine it to be the water pump might as well do timing belt/ chain and corresponding engine seals and oil pump at the same time. May cost a lot now but got about 60k before some of theses items become an issue again.
60-80,000 miles is a great benchmark for ANY vehicle. nissan recomends 105,000 miles which seems a little excessive to me. be careful because this engine is listed as an interference motor and WILL cause internal engine damage if it was to break.
Timing belts are found on the 3.3L engines, timing chains are on the 2.4L engines. The 2002 3.3L Timing belt is changed at 105K during the major service. This service can run over one thousand dollars. It is recommended to replace the belt, tensioner and idlers, cam and crank seals, water pump, and both belts when changing the timing belt. That way, you only open up the front of the engine every 105K. Why change the timing belt and have a water pump start leaking only 20K later and ruin the belt with antifreeze? Other items during the 105K are a major tune up with all the fluids changed and a lube. This does get expensive. You can break it up into several blocks of time and spread the related service items out over a few months to take some of the sting off.
