Default car squeeks on turns

Whenever I make "sharp" turns (like when Im going down a parking garadge) and my car is cold or warm, my car squeeks. This is only on semi-sharp to sharp turns. I dont notice it on regular driving and turning lanes. Its quite annoying. what could this be? I dont think its my suspension, because if i go to every corner of the car and just press it down and bounce it It doesnt squeek at all. I sware its comming from the wheel well. any ideas?

Does it only happen in the garage? If so, it is likely just your tires squeaking on the polished concrete.

Brakes? Are your pads worn?

power steering fluid is fine. guy at the local shop said I needed new rotors? How do you know? Aparently my front breaks are bad. IS that it? But im not using the breaks around the turns and I KNOW its not tire squeek. Its a high pitches "metal" squeek

my 04 gt has had a bad creeking noise when turning the wheel . I just had the rack and pinion bushings replaced and fixed the problem. But three weeks later its back but not as loud.

I have the same problem.
I'll try it out.
I also think mine has something to do with my coilover.
Thanks for the write up
