Strange Squealing / Chattering Noise
#1
Diving home last night my UK97 Turbo developed quite a nasty intermittent squealing / high-pitched chattering from the front end. A dab of the brakes seems to get rid of it for a few seconds, and then it comes back again. Sods law, this morning everything seems fine – any ideas?

Not sure if this can be it as you say you dont hear it today, but I had this and apparently the brake pads have something in them that when the pad wears out it scrapes (gently) against the disk so you have an audible warning about the pads wearing out before you have metal touching metal.
worth a quick check anyway

I checked the pads, the outer pads seem to have a good 6-7mm on them, can't see the inner pads but assume they are the same? And yes it stop / start when I change direction. That is it started doing it if it wasn't already, and if it was doing it - it stopped!!! Very strange!
I think I'll jack it up tonight and have a good look at the disks and pads.
