[QUOTE="jumpman, post: 16232, member: 2098"] Ok, I've been getting this problem for quite a while already. It wasn't that bad before so I didn't really take note but this time the sound gets worse. I have noises coming from the wheels, ie metal screeching (could be from the brakes or the calipers, I don't know exactly but if im not mistaken both left and right sides have the noise). It is noticeable at low speeds till 40km/h. Above that range and the noise will disappear. I noticed that it normally occurs after the car gets warmed up. Could it be the heat causing the metal to expand? Cos I was told that the air duct at the bumpers channel air into the braking system to help cool it and prevent overheating. Could this be the case?Hope I can get some advice from you all, thanks!! [/QUOTE]
