This is driving me nuts, since it is sporadic:
I'll be driving along just fine, when suddenly a horrendous squeal/whine starts, and I can feel vibration in the floorboard. If I tap the brakes, it quiets down for a second, then starts up again. If I tap the brakes a bunch of times, it will often go away completely, and then maybe not come back for a day, or maybe come back in 5 minutes. I think it's one of the front brakes, but so far I can't quite trace where the sound is coming from. Of course, if I jack up the car and spin the wheels, no sign of any rubbing issues. Wheel bearings seem fine. Any suggestions? Thanks!! |

The calipers "seem" fine. I took off both front wheels and didn't see anything of concern. And, as mentioned above, no sign of rubbing at that time.
(Of course, the car wasn't making any noise at that time... it is so sporadic that I can't check it out while it's making the noise..) Maybe a spring is not always springing? |
