Hi Everyone,

I seem to have developed a squeak when going left, the sharper it is, the more likely it is to happen. It is always a short metallic kind of squeal. It kind of sounds like it is coming from the rear passenger side. It is rather frustrating as I can't get it to happen every time, some times its when I enter my drive ways, some corners on the way to work are almost guaranteed to happen, but it will happen a number of times on the way to work

Any idea on how I can narrow it down or has some one come across this?

Could be a worn rear drive shaft CV joint. Check the boots to see if there are any splits.

Get a mechanic to take a listen or an inspection of the vehicle. Often it check costs nothing or Pedders will carry out a check and give a report for a small sum.

Turns out it was dirty rear brakes. Took them off gave the bracket a clean and fresh lube and all is good again.
