Vy exec squek

[stooie]

Hey

I have a squek in my vy exec when at low speed, it gets louder as you get slower, the squek is slowly getting worse.
Anyone have any idea of what it is??

Thanks

wheres the noise coming from mate?... could be ya brake pads maybe, mine squeeked at low speeds when turning but changed the pads and discs machined and its all good now

um it seems to be from the back end, and another noise after about a half hour drive, i get a rubbing noise from the wheels??

Sounds like rear brakes to me. Mine are doing the same... Gonna replace the disks and pads and should go away

It might be the handbrake shoes rubbing. Early VY's can do this and there was a mod added sometime during 2004 to the VY that added a bracket and spring to keep the shoe in the right place. You can buy this as a kit from Holden and it has instructions on how to drill the hole neede din the hand brake shoes assuming they have never been replaced as the replacement ones have the hole.
