hey guys, hearing a squeeking noise as i drive on the streets coming from the front driver's side wheelwell. it's not the brakes, cuz i just changed them two months ago. one day, when i closed the door,(parked) it also squeeked from the wheelwell, could the squeek be my struts?
I've also got an intermittent squeaking noise. It seems to be coming from either my wheels/axles, brakes or chassis. It's sometimes loud enough to hear over my radio.
It's a very dissonant metal on metal noise. I sometimes hear it quite distinctly when I'm driving at low speeds in parking lots. It's turning heads for all the wrong reasons...
Does this ring a bell for anyone else? It's driving me crazy...

i know, that squeek sucks. sounds like a bird chirping, and that's exactly what i thought it was until i reminded myself that i'm in los angeles.
anyone know what it could be??? i'm off the warranty

just a shot but they buy a grease that you can put on the back of your pads to stop squeeking, that is if it is the pads. I just put hawks on, which people have said squeek and i dont hear a sound.
This particular 'squeak' is present when I'm not applying my brakes. (i.e. when I'm either driving or coasting at low speeds)
I sometimes hear squeaking from my Brembos (when I apply them) but I'm not sure if these squeaks are in any way related.
I'm starting to think that one noise is coming from my Brembos and the other "chirping squeak" might be coming from my e-brake pad which might be rubbing against something.

mine never did it before, but the other night i kind of ran over a concrete median while running from "the man". doesnt drive any differently, but ive got a squeak somewhere from my left front wheel that i can hear thru first and second.
I have the bird noise, only heard when the window is DOWN and when i hit small bumps. Its from the driver side and sounds like mine is the door panel. Well today I made an interesting discovery, the sideview mirror is causing my squeak, so I will be taking it apart and trying to fix it sometime this week.
Also I have a clunking type noise in the front suspension area. Sounds metal on metal but not a squeak. I will be taking apart the entire front suspension and retightening everything with an impact gun very very soon. That clunk will be dead if its the last thing I do.
