it might be your brake pad sensor. it is a little bracket on the rear of your brake pads.

I have the exact same squeak coming from the near side on my scoob MY00. It started last week and is there all the time now when driving. Kinda of sounds like a squeaky brake Would a bearing make this noise or could it be the pad wear bracket ??

I have been getting the same problem on my NSF. The noise is like a squeeling at road traffic speeds. But when I start to move the car there is a cracking noise coming from the NS wheel area. The sound is worse with the steering turned half way at a very slow parking speed.

Anyone had a look at the pad wear bracket yet.

Seems to happen with the slightest hint of the wheel moving. I get a loud ticking clicking sound.

I am gonna have a look at my pad wear bracket at the weekend (after I use a pressure hose on the wheels first) I was told not that long ago that the pads whilst worn were ok but I guess you never know ?
