    Slight squeaking except when turning?

    So on a 1997 Leggy GT, Auto theres a slight squeaking coming from the left front area. I suspect a wheel bearing and heres why...

    It gets faster/slightly louder with speed above 25 MPH and goes away when you change direction if only slightly.

    Thoughts?

    Put it up on a jack and try to wiggle the tire.

    Yeah, shake down the front end. Take a look at the condition of the control arm bushings as well.

    sounds like it may be a skreacher finger on your break pads telling you they are starting to get thin.

    check bushing, check ball joints,

    because it is while you are driving and goes away when ur turning I would look into your brakes.
    Does it get any louder or go away when you hit the brakes?

    Wheel bearings don't really "squeak" when they're going. they make a droning noise typically.

    Hope this helps.

    Nope, unless i hit them hard enough to dip the front end. Then it goes away just like when you change direction. Thanks tho!
