I've got a squeaking/grinding noise coming from the front passenger side wheel. I got the wheel off, took the brakes apart and everything looks good - pads look almost brand new. When I take the pads off the squeak goes away, but when I'm driving the squeak is dependent on wheel speed and doesn't change when I hit the brakes.
It's more of a squeak than a grinding noise, definitely not the wheel bearing or cv joint.
Any ideas?

Have you tried some hard braking? I've notice sometimes with new pads you have to give them a couple of hard brakes to get rid of the coating on them... that might be it...? kindasad.gif

I notice you're in Calgary - with a GTS... would you mind letting me know who you're getting your parts through?? I'm new to town and I dread taking my GTS to the "stealer"-ship.
