Hey guys, ive only just got my FD a couple of days ago and im still getting used to it. Today i heard squeaking noises coming from the wheels when im driving, especially when turning at low speeds. I thought it might be the wheels being a bit squeaky on the hot road but im not sure.

What do wheel bearings sound like on the way out?

EDIT. Is this the rear sway bar?

 

Squeaking noises could be worn-out brake pads. If the sound goes away when you use the brakes that' sprobably what it is.

Sometimes a bad brake caliper will cause your brake pads to drag excessively and make noise too.

Another thing I've seen is a stone gets caught between the hub and brake rotor, and the stone just makes this horrible constant noise. Happened once on my Maxima.

thanks for the post mate,

well its not continuous, its sort of quick burst. i might check the brake pads.

After doing more searching, im thinking maybe its my sway bar at the rear.

 

If it squeaks as you go over bumps check the swaybar bushings.
