08 civic Squealing on back wheel
It squeals sometimes for minutes either on a freeway or just cruising in the city. Still squeals while braking but getting under 25 mph or so itll stop. Ive noticed going on on a rough road or shifting lanes over the lane bumpers itll either disrupt it or start it slightly. It usually starts on its own most of the time especially cruising on a straight drive. i compared grooves on all disks and noticed that theres maybe a hairline groove that if i dont service now might def cause problems later.

not necessarily. with a bad wheel bearing you normally won't feel anything different while driving, you will normally hear a metal on metal grinding sound. Easiest way to check if it is the wheel bearing is to jack up the car and try and wobble the wheel. (make sure the hand brake is not on) It should not wobble at all.

Possibly brake boot pin tore, and your caliper pins need to be regreased. I thought i needed a brake pad change was just my caliper staying stuck.
Does the noise go away when you brake, or change?
Could just be brake dust also or a rough or hot spot on the rotor.

Hello all friends how are you?
well in my point of view you should need to check caliper pins or break boot,Do you feel any noise when you apply the breaks?If you do here then go for what i say.
