97 Buick Skylark Squealing! Sign In

Hi, My car recently started squealing when I would take a right turn. It does seem to get louder when I am braking, but it continues when I am hitting the gas. It now is happening when I go straight, but not constantly. The noise disappears when I turn the steering wheel left. It has been happening for about a week. I should also mention that is seemed to start after I drove the car on very rocky dirt roads. It doesn't sound like scraping, or metal, but more a "belt" squealing sound. Any ideas? Thanks! Unsure

Disc brakes are famous for sqeeling. They make a material that stays quiet called porcelain for disc pads. Check out disc brakes by taking them off and look for both wear and cracks in the lining. Even if not worn out that cause noise - they got to go. Grease with grease made for brakes that is rubber friendly andy ares and slide bolts but keep it away from the friction surface.
