| Brakes(?) Squealing at low speed on extreme lock |
|
As per title. It happened today whilst negotiating tight corners in a car park. It sounds like brake pads but I wasn't applying the brakes. Any clues as to what might be the cause (before I go to the dealer)would be appreciated.

Were you on full steering lock? Might be power steering belt slipping.

I think I have the same problem. Looks likee when I am driving and esp on Left hand turns the brakes are squealing. Both my rear disks feel scored and have a fair lip to them, the fronts are smooth and free from lip.
Looking to replace them to see it it cures.
ps
When I brake the squeal goes away is urs the same?

Confirmed : On full lock. Is a slipping belt an easy fix (while U wait)?
I didn't try the brakes. I'll have to wait for it to happen again.

Sorry Bill, not sure how easy it would be to adjust. Mate had a car that "squealed during the night". But only at night. Eventually found that his alternator belt was slipping, the demand of having the lights on was just enough extra load.
