On my 1971 914-6 when I reach about 15 mph I begin to hear a high pitch EEEEE sound about every half second. It sounds the same at 70 mph as it does at 20 mph. I can take it out of gear and coast and it doesn't change. I can hear the EEEEE sound every half second while coasting in neutral at 70 mph and it continues until the car slows down to about 15 MPH and then it goes away. It seems to be coming from my right front wheel area. Hitting the brakes doesn't change it at all. Swerving back and forth doesn't change it either. I removed the wheel and the pads are not touching the brake rotor. I spin the wheel and it doesn't make any noise at all. Any ideas?

I think wheel bearing as well. One or more of the rollers is disentigrating. BTDT (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)


Or maybe the can of ready whip is running out
