Name that sound
This happened after my splash guards ripped... again. Anyway when ever i turn the wheels to the left and go under 2 miles an hour, well slow anyway, my left side almost sounds like the caliper makes a high pitched squeel i dunno how to put it to words other than tssssssssssssssssss and a whole lot of telling people see what happens when you have vtec. Is this the sound a caliper makes when its dying? cuz the brakes work fine?

Then check to see how much pad is left, could be those annoying chirpers. Could be the dust shield touching the rotor, maybe a small rock between them. Could be a bunch of things, just diagnose a little and you'll be good.
I heard a similar sound from my old Accord's rear drivers side when I would go around turns. My original thought was needing new bearings in the hub, but it turned out that I needed new brake pads. Anyway, just a thought.
