:panic: every time i hit 35mph - 45mph the right hand side of the car sqqueeeeeeeeeks consistantly! it's coming from the right wheel i think. Would this be a baring or break pad? or maybe something else!?
reps will be left........:P

could even be the trailer arms squeeking, best to jack the car up and move the wheel around to see where the noise is coming from;)
have you read this?

if its deffo comming from the front right wheel could be a few things
bearings, driveshaft, brakes, brake lines.
my front left wheel used to squeak and i got it looked out and it turned out it was the drive shaft on that side, the gator had come loose and there was no grease left.

yeah. to check the bearnings like pete said, jack it up and get the wheel off the ground then see if you can rock the wheel, if you can rock it then it is the bearings. for the drive shaft, to check that you'll have to jack up the car and have a look underneath, look to see if there is wear on the gators or if they have come loose, check the condition of the rubber on the gators too.
if its the drive shaft there is likily to be a knocking sound when you corner but not always.
i know from having my drive shaft replaced that it cost £110 inc VAT to have it totally replaced, but depending on how bad condition it is in you might be able to sort it out buy getting some grease packs to put in and then a new jubilie clip to secure it.
