    Metal on Metal squeaking sound, need help.

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    So I had to go on a long road trip today...about 360miles round trip.

    Living in FL I have my windows up with the AC whenever on the highway.

    Well on the way down I put the windows down and was cruising at about 55-60mph and kept hearing this squeaking sound coming from my passenger side on the outside.

    It wasn't consistent was totally random. Can't hear it at all with windows up or feel anything in my steering wheel.

    Under about 40mph I don't hear it. It's pretty loud but I have no idea what it is.

    Could it be a wheel bearing or any other suggestions?

    does it make the same noise at low speeds?

    prolly a worn brake pad hitting the rotor hitting metal against metal

    It doesn't seem to make the noise when I slowed down.

    I was on a highway and I head it. When I pulled off and was driving slow trying to listen better it seemed to go away.

    After I got back on the highway after a while I rolled down my window and it was back.
