Squeaking/Chirping

ladysamf · 07-10-2006, 03:59 PM

We have a 2004 Suzuki Forenza, bought in April with around 50,000 miles on it. Now around 52,000. Yesterday we noticed for the first time that there was a chirping/squeaking noise coming from the wheel area while in motion. It quits as soon as you reduce speed to make a stop, and there is no noise while braking.

Any ideas?

I can't help you much on that but before 60k miles replace your timing belt! It's very important with this engine, if the timing belt goes you might as well get a new engine.

It could be a brake-related condition where a pad may be making contact with the rotor. In any case, it would have to be diagnosed by someone present with the car to know exactly what the problem might be.
