Default annoying skeaky sound front left.... not sure what is causing it

there is an annoying skeaky sound front left.... not sure what is causing it
it is coming from the drivers side front, it is rotational, but it is not from the motor, it only happens when im over 20mph, it gets faster with speed, not rpm, sounds like it might be inside, checked underneath steering wheel, but can't tell what it is while im not moving?
anyone have this problem ever?
its just frustrating because i don't know What it is coming From!

might be a wheel bearing or something dragging like your brakes

sounds like your brake pads are worn out and the metal shim is rubbing causing that sound

would that be only at certain speeds? could it be the rotors?

Ive typically had my brake pads squeel at lower speeds. Usually when coming to a complete stop. Well if your brake pads are completely worn down, it will warp your rotors and eventually start eating into it

Does the sound change any when you turn left or right at a low speed when you first hear the noise. You might have to jack up the front end (safely) and listen if it's the brake pads or bad CV joint or ?? Hopefully nothing serious...

it is not the brake pads, they have plenty of life left on them

SPEEDOMETER HEAD!!!!!! mine does it too.... i'm pretty sure its the same part as on the civic si, so get the part number from acura, and buy it from honda. it's about 10% less. in northern va it runs about $160. doesn't hurt anything, just annoying as hell. how much you selling those headers for?
