There is a chirping/squeaking noise coming from my RH front tyre when I drive.
Thinking it is the wheel bearings I jacked the car up and spun the front tyre to see whats going on.
When I turn the tyre it makes a rubbing noise and doesn't spin much. When I turn the wheel on the other (Passenger) side it spins freely so something is wrong with the RH front.
There is no play in the wheel when I jacked it up and checked. When I test drive it it still squeaks when I turn the wheel to the right. (even after I swapped it with the spare as I thought maybe something is wrong with the rim)
I'm not really convinced it is the wheel bearing due to the lack of play in the tyre. I am happy to stand corrected though. Any suggestions as to what it could be? Could it be the brake rotor or pads?
