godskitchen 0 Posted August 3, 2006 Could be bearings? easy to find out if it is, jack the car up and see if there is any play in the wheel! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Roger Blassberg 0 Posted August 3, 2006 It could be a brake pad just touching the disc, which in turn could be due to a slack wheel bearing or the pad moving slightly in the caliper (cure this by taking pads out and applying copper grease to the back plates). Try feathering the brake and listening for the squeak to disappear. Any evidence of the brake binding, like hot discs, higher fuel consumption, lots of brake dust etc? If so, the caliper might be need some attention. Best wishes RB Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
