Re: Squeeeeek from the right rear

No, the brake pad wear indicator isn't dragging either. The pads and the rotor are new. Perhaps the leading edge of my pads are making this sound. I should've chamfered the leading edge to see if this goes away. I don't think it's the wheel bearings since they don't have that roar sound I read about on this board.

Thanks for any ideas.

I am a pessimistic optimistic. I think the worst is going to happen, that way when it does, i don't feel as bad, but if the best happens, i am twice as happy.
