Squeeky noise

The past couple of weeks I've started noticing a squeeky noise coming from my front left wheel whenever I turn left (whether it's cranking the wheel all the way, or just merging into the left lane). I was wondering if that was enough info for someone to know what it probably is because I couldn't figure it out if I tried. I just wanted to ask on here before I take it into a mechanic and pay money just for them to check it out. Thanks fellus!

CV or a bearing would be my guess. Does it also do it at higher speeds? When my bearing went bad it would give like a high pitched hum at freeway speeds. Or it could be a bushing? Good luck man!

Yeah when I was hauling up the onramp I noticed it when I got on and merged from the right lane to the left, I was doing 75-80mph.

Any chance you can get a soundclip? I work in a shop and can likely diagnose it for you if I can hear it

if it does it when you hit bumps too it could be your sway bar pins. Had the same problem fixed about 3 months ago.
