    Don't hear it over bumps only at very low speeds around 30-20 or can hear it if put in neutral and push it,has had all the front suspension replaced as well as new struts and springs and the bush and bearing on top of strut.

    Hard compound brake pads, is it constant or on and off, could be a buckle rotor, only other thing wheel bearing.

    Try turn the aircon on see if the squeeks in neutral could be the belts squeeling under a certain load or just rev it slightly in neutral

    Tail shaft in the back of the Transmission,
    Common on VX's
    My 1999 VT2 Berlina Sedan, and 2002 VX2 Berlina Wagon did the same,
    just turned the Radio up a bit louder.

    Thanks guys will look into all suggestions brakes are only new bendix generals and new rotors thought might been a warped rotor but they where fine its only at very low speed otherwise don't hear it

    Brakes don't squeek when rolling, unless they are worn out.....Obvious they're not.....If your rotors were warped at the front, you'd get a rock or vibration through the steering wheel under braking....If the rears are warped, you'd get a pulsation through the brake pedal, under braking

    If the squeek has just started since all the front end parts have been replaced, re-grease them all....It's a common issue I strike, when people have replaced front end parts and a squeek develops...
