Front Passenger Squeeking At Low Speeds

So I have searched the forum and come up empty handed as to why my front passenger wheels squeaks (terrible loud) at low speeds. At first it was a random occurrence, it would come and go as it pleased. I searched the internet and found that a possible culprit was the brakes. Great. So I changed them and the rotors. Well, the squeaks are still there. And just as loud.


Any idea or confirmed culprit to this that I just passed up in my reading? It's become so bothersome that it happens almost 80% of the time I leave from a stop. Extremely embarrassing too as if I don't take care of my cars.

Any help is EXTREMELY appreciated

Find a new passenger? preferably younger and cuter

Have you tried to re-bed the brakes?

No, I started to think it had nothing to do with the brakes. But youre right, I might as well try.

This is probably the millionth post about this subject. Try applying grease to your brakes. You could also try cleaning the wheel/components. I had the same issue in another wheel. Turned out to be that the brake components weren't properly greased. Also it could be the brake pad sensor making contact with the rotor. Good luck.

Thanks AnthonyT. Yea, I know I have read about 100 threads on it but never found a definitive answer. I was trying to not post this and add to the mass of them but I got desperate for answers...

I had no idea they had Filipino food in Cerritos, i thought it was just all chinese and desi (Indian) stuff in that area?

All the Filipino peeps would go to LA for Filipino stuff.

I had the same problem too, except for the rear brakes. Ended up replacing rotors, brakes and the sensor-it's been 2 weeks and no noise yet

Here's a link to my thread regarding that dreadful noise:
