High Pitched Shrill Squeal

Hi All,

Has anyone experienced the following:

For the last month my '92 LSL (SVXY) has beem emitting a high pitched shrill squeal from the right side brakes. I think it is from the rear brake. The interesting thing is the condition under which the sound starts. It occurs on trailing throttle usually after the brakes are warmed up. The sound starts low in volume and gets louder from around 10 mph to 50 mph. The sound disappears about 60-65 mph. The sound stops when I apply the brakes. I does not stop when I apply the parking brake. I cannot tell if ti is the fornt or rear right brake. It sounds like it comes from the from when listening from outside the car, but it sounds like it comes from the rear when I am inside the car.



I can live with it for a while longer. It seems to be temperature influenced. The hotter it is the more it occurs. What has me baffled is that it disappears at higher speeds. I will have the right side brakes looked at in about a month.

Any suggestions are appreciated.
