noise taking off at low speed, braking and turning
 

hey dudes

i have this noise (cant really tell where it is coming from but i am guessing the front, probably front /left/right wheel), when i take off there is a squeaking sound, it goes on and off and on again which i guess means it is where something is rotating and brushing against something..

only happens when i take off, when im turning slowly around a roundabout and sometimes when i brake. this doesnt happen all the time but it does happen. after 'warming up' the car the sound usually goes away though, usually happens when i first start the car up. what could it be? :toothy4:

Maybe Power steering fluid is empty...check it anyways!!!!

wouldnt steering be a real bitch if the p/s fluid was empty? ill go check it now though

nah not too bad, just makes noise.....wont make driving dangerous or anything!!

Brake pads almost worn out?? All brake pads come with a metal piece which rubs against the brake disc...

If its a squeeling/screeching high pitch noise then i agree with Rex-io

how low is the car?

Stebaun seems to be offline...

heres a pic i found from his intro

Jamie should give you an idea of how low it is....

hes lowered it since guys, not sure what springs hes on though.

I have a similar squeeking noise that im trying to get to the bottom off. So will also take notice of this thread and answers :)

Guessing brake pad squeek would only happen when breaking if theyre worn out ??

Does the same apply for rotors ??

ok its not stupidly low though. Could be dragging brake pads, rock in the pads, even a nail head in the tyre. Check for obvious things first.
