Does anyone know whats wrong when your front wheels squeek from accelerating? Does not squeek when braking. Thanks

 

accelerating like a hard launch or do you mean just regular driving?

 

Regular driving...

 

if you drive at a constant speed (no accelerating or slowing) is the sound still there
what kind of suspension mods do you have?

 

squeek is not always there..only when accelerating..susp is stock

 

I can hear a squek from mine also when im drive really slow like 5mph, (usually hear in traffic and window down and music low) It is very faint but seams to be coming from my driver side rear tire, Any ideas what it is?

 

My car is in the shop for this same problem right now (!)...I'll let you know what or if they find anything. But everything you all describe is exactly what I'm experiencing.....

 

seems to be some type of bearing worn or something just my idea maby the bearings seal busted and has not much greese in it now and there are rocks in it and maby even rust

 

Okay guys here we go: The body shop that I take my car to is kind of sick of me. They think I'm too particular...sorry I'm not satisifed with a POS Pontiac like everyone else in my town. Nonetheless, I trust the guy.

So they said nothing was actually wrong with the wheels or brakes. He said that there are springs in the calipers that eventually loose their tension over time, causing the springs to move sporadically, thus causing the noise. The guy also said that it doesn't cause other parts to wear out, nor does it pose a safety risk. However, he did say that there is some sort of kit that you can buy that supposedly takes away the noise. (somehow it acts as a brace for these springs) $10 a wheel. I just told him to order them...$40, I don't care...I just hate the noise and its almost embarassing. I'll keep y'all posted if they work...My appointment is on Thursday.

 

Thanks i appreciate any info on this squeek...
