I agree, but that doesnt make up for the sqeaking. Is it brake sqeaking or other?

not blaming you..he could be a bit more helpful on what the noise is all about.
I understand. I was asked how to use jumper cables the other day. We can only provide info based on what we are given.

With that being said. Is it a finger nail on the chalk board sound?

like i said its hard to describe....its like a chirping, squeaking sound. i understand that its one of those things that you need to be there to hear, but i figured id ask anyway.

See if your wheel is loose. Mine was making a similar noise, and I would never have noticed it, if It wasn't summer and my top wasn't down. Turns out last time I had work done the mechanic didn't tighten my one wheel fully.

Tightening it, fixed the problem.
