I have just heard a constant squealing noise from somewhere on my car. I think it is from the left hand side, but I don't know whether it is front or back. It is definitely speed related, not engine related.

Could this be a wheel bearing on its way out, or the back pads being worn out? (Last time I checked they had quite a lot of pad left - can't be the fronts as I've just put on 4 pots and new pads - it squealed before this )

Anyone got any ideas?

 

Maybe your wife thinks your going to fast


Sorry, couldn't resist! Hope you get it sorted

 

I wouldn't mind that, but she first noticed it when she was driving the car on her own

 

someone must be able to help. It's getting anoying now

 

Jut been out in the car to see if I can find the problem. It seems to be the front left wheel area. I'm pretty sure it's not the brakes.

 

It could be a small stone caught between the disc protector and the disc, it happened on my car a while back.

 

I'll check, but I changed the discs yesterday

It made the noise both before and after the disc change, so brake problems seem unlikely to me.
