Suspension & Brake Noises

I have 2 sounds coming from my car that I need to figure out and I need some suggestions on what it could be.

First sound comes as I steer, it doesn't come all the time, it seems it comes at one certain speed and steering angle and it's a high pitched squeek that keeps coming as long as I maintain that certain steering angle and speed. It's not THAT loud, but just loud enough for me to hear in my car as I'm driving with my windows down at a low speed (10-15MPH).

The second sound comes as I brake. When I brake, sometimes as I'm braking, I hear a very deep squeek, which sounds like it's coming from the back. It's like that squeek that comes from those big trucks as they slow down, almost the exact same sound coming from my car.

I'm going to get my car's suspension and braking completely and thoroughly checked at some shop soon and have it fixed. I'm not too family with suspension and braking systems, I am familiar with them, but not TOO familiar, so help would be appreciated. I'm sure I can learn it quick as I did everything else. I really want to know what these sounds are and how I can fix them.

Thanks in advance.

Oh and I have an FC3S S4 Turbo2 10AE.

do u have power steering? and as for the braking one check your brake pads, they might be worn down heres a tip the contact patch (the part that touchs the brake disk) should be thicker then the metel plate, if not u need new brake pads
