Hi guys, done a search, couldn't find any the same problem as mine.
Basically, it sounds like something is catching, very high pitch squeak when the wheel is turning. It's there from the start, and doesn't stop no matter how fast I'm going. Noticed it also doesn't stop when applying the brakes.
Any ideas? Driving me absolutely insane!

H Paul, not sure what car you've got but when I got my bugeye I had the same problem, mine was a silver pin thing on my calipers rubbing against the disk, I just bet it back slightly and it solved it mate.

Ahh never even thought of that mate. The mechanic I used had to drill the last pin out so hopefully the one he made up is slightly long. Ill let you know tonight mate

It could also be that your pads are low. They have a metal clip that rubs on the disc when the pads get low.

Just checked guys and it looks like low pads again. Pagid ones only been on the car about 3months! I think I need to get rid of the Tarox vented and grooved discs

more likely a sticky caliper unless you do 0000's of miles??

Just sorted the exact problem as this on my passenger side wheel. I lifted the caliper up and found a small stone stuck between the disc and dust guard. Simple fix, but the noise annoyed the hell out of me.

I have done around 8k since Jan and on my 2nd set of pads now. How could I sort sticky caliper mate?
