as i was going home tonight i noticed that my front right wheel has this squeaking sound when i turn the wheel. what do you guys think is causing this? i never noticed it before. oh yeah i have coilovers, could it be the coils making that noise? any help would be great. thanx

It could be your brakes early warning, cause i have seen some brakes only squeak when turning.... how many miles has it been since you replaced your brakes?

 

brakes are new, not even 4000 miles on them. it squeaks too when im not moving and i turn the wheel.

 

Then I think its bushings if they aren't gone then look at coil bushings.

 

Sounds like the coilovers
to me. Did you put all of
the rubber pieces on?
Spray everything on the
coilovers with wd-40.

 

thanx.. ill check out the bushings tomorrow.

 

ive had the coilovers for a year now and they never made those sounds before and yeah all the rubber pieces were put on. but they might have worn off already.

 

any other theories why it could be making that whining/squeaking sound when i turn the wheels? thanx

 

did you do a full brake job or just change the pads?
Did you turn the rotor?

 

i just changed the brake pads.
turn the rotor???

 

resurface the rotor.

 

oh no i didnt resurface the rotor.

 

Thats prolly why its making the noises.

 

thanx for all your responses im gonna check it tomorrow and see what the problem is.

 

dude mine does the same...but i think its like my tierod needs to be lubed or something??
