Squeeking from Left Front Corner When Turning Right
I have just recently noticed a chirping or squeeking (very high pitched) sound coming from the front left corner when I'm making a tight right-hand turn at slow speed.
It may be making the sound at high speed but is drowned out by road noise...dunno.
I first noticed it when driving thru a narrow parking garage and making a whole bunch of right turns on the way up. On the way out (all left hand turns) not a peep...
Any ideas where to start looking at (...I know...Look at the front left corner...) Any ideas? NE1 had similar exp?
BTW: Car is a 95max SE w/ 102k...
Any suggestions would be great...

um i actually have the same problem, and right now i just found out its my cv boot thats cut and axle is bent. Turn your wheels all the way left and look at your cv boot if its leaking grease or somthing. my brother just checked mine out(my mechanic) and order it asap cause that noise gets louder and more anoyying ever day.

well i belive the cv boot comes with the axle. but its the axle thats making the noise i belive, like mine was told to be bent. but i would have someone check your problem out before spending the time and money. Could be somthing totally different. But like for me its surely the axle.
does your wheel wall have any oil/ grease on it? mine does cause the cv boot was ripped.

same problem when pulling out of a parking spot the morning and i had to turn my wheel all the way to the left as pulling out and for a couple of seconds i hear :wooomph: woomph grinding type hi pitches sound but none existent when drving staight. Only on slow shar left turns. I have completely torn CV boots and need 2 new axles. Just saving money slowy to get it done cuz im poor and have no money. Wat wierd is that the noise when drvinf staight occured months ago but disappeared when i replaced brake pads, no only when shsar left does noise occur..but mosty likely the axles.
