The sandpaper sound, does it happen more at about 2000 RPM and under acceleration? If so, it is likely a wheel bearing going, my 9-5 started this, did it for about a year and a half before it got worse and started makign the tell-tale noise of a bad bearing. As for the brakes, if the wobble is in the steering wheel it'll be the front, if it's in the butt of your seat it's the back. Did you have the back checked?
