Title: Unholy Squeeling Noise from front passenger side
Post by: ub7rm on August 19, 2011, 10:19:13 am

YesterdayI was travelling along minding my own business when this really loud high pitched  squeel / jingling noise started up.  As soon as I touch the brake it stops and seems to be worse at lower speeds like 30.  At 50 mph the noise is barely there but comes back a bit at higher speeds.

Any ideas?  Its quite embarassing  :ashamed:

Stone trapped in the brake pads?

If I got a stone gaight between the rear disc and stone guard the squeeling was horendous and very embarrasing.

This has been there for about 60  miles now. When will it come out?!

Dont rely on it being a stone unless you actually know it is. Get it checked out
