I have this weird noise thats getting louder and louder by the day, im really hoping its just time for my brakes to be changed, but you could never be sure, you know? But i get the squeeking noise mostly when i brake lightly, not really when i brake hard. And also when i do really sharp turns or turn the wheel all the way. Is it just Brakes or is something more? I already know i should change my LCA, could that be makign that noise? TIA!

**UPDATE**

I was driving to work today and i noticed that the squeeking/squelling noise only comes on when i have my clutch engaged and my RPMs drop to about 2k and under. Im thinking it might be something in between the flywheel and the clutch, cause i hear a faint rattle before it squeels, any ideas? Thanks.

No my noise is different from yours, you said it sounds kinda like a cricket, mine sort of sounds like when you put your finger over a balloon and move it.

Squeeky bushings? Time for new brake pads? Rusty rotors perhaps? All things to look out for.

Im going to pull my tires sometime this week to look for the problem, ill keep those in mind, anything else that could make that noise?

All ready replaced them, thats why this is so weird to me cause it still squeaks. Could it be the rotor?

make sure you put the brake pads on the right direction...otherwise...that little metal handle thing can be hitting your rims...
my other guess is the clutch throwout bearing...

If its the throw bearing, cause i know for sure its not my pads, how bad is that? Cause i wotn be able to fix that for a good while.

i have a squeky noise too, I think its the alternator that may have the bearigs damaged from overtigtening the belt or something

I dont think its that cause its only when i slow down and in a gear. When im slowing down in nutral then i dont get any noise. Its kind of a annoying sound but i could have the radio drown it, i just want to know if its something i should really be worried about or not.
