jay5041 Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Hi i've not had my supra long but this evening noticed a high pitched squeak happening coming from the front i think. I think its wheel rotational related as doesnt happen at a standstill. It comes an goes an sometimes is more noticeable if wheel is turning towards the right slightly, if i turn left it'd stop. But noticed before it can happen in either direction. Was thinking it could be brake related as sounds similar to faint squeak i sometimes get when braking. Anyone got any ideas as its doing my head in!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirk Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 on a serious note, if you want drilled or grooved discs dont get ebay , 3G discs are better option although to be honest i wouldnt get either, drilled = more prone to cracking and grooved eat your pads fast! id get orignal discs from toyota Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
