squeeling noise when turning left

Post by mart 475 »

hi i drive a 2.1 petrol club joker and last week i couldnt fail to notice the loud squeeling noise when i turned left.its a bit longwinded this one so here goes,last year i had the upper wishbone bushes replaced but started getting the dreaded squeeke again recently and on investigation have found that the bushes werent spot welded when renewed and three weeks ago had new discs and pads fitted. now last week after the squeeling episode i returned to my garage who checked it over and said that the bolts in the upper bushes had worked loose? they tightened them but it kicked off again at the weekend.so im thinking that as the discs have only just been done it could be something to do with this? any help would be greatly appreciated ta martin

If you haven't...
Put some brake grease on the back of the pads
make sure the calipers are tight and the splash guard isn't fouling the disc

and check the wheel bearing doesn't need adjusting.
