In my continuing efforts to gain experience wrenching/troubleshooting, I wanted to ask for some diagnostic help here: I've been having a steady squeaking noise coming from my rear right wheel, and I'm guessing it's brake related, just don't know what component exactly (thinking brake pads...). When it gets to making noise (within 5 minutes of startup), it seems like I'm getting a squeak with every revolution of the wheel, and it is silenced each time I depress the brake. Even further, I just noticed recently that when I'm at speed and getting the noise w/ each wheel revolution, even the slightest degree of turning the car will supress the noise (no idea if this helps in diagnosis, if it's coincidence, or if I'm losing my mind).

Anyways, just wanted some input as to what to possibly check for. If not, I can always bring it to my mechanic for a diagnosis there.

Thanks in advance for any info--it is much appreciated. Car is EM1 Civic Si, stock brakes/components

Probably the brake pads. Only one way to find out...
