Hi, I have a question about a sound my car is making. Its a 2000 Chevy Cavalier 2.2 liter engine with an automatic transmission, 50,000 miles and ABS brakes. There is a noise coming somewhere from the left front wheel, sort of like a cross between a squeaking and a brushing sound.
I can hear it when I'm driving, but not with the windows close, and it makes the sound on every tire rotation, so it pulses at a rate proportional to how fast I'm going. It is constant, speed or turning makes no difference. I checked the tire and it seems to be okay, so I guess the tire can be ruled out. No blockage in or anything caught in the wheel well either. What does this sound like to you?
The noise was gone for a while after I did tire rotation 2 months ago, and now it comes back. Could be time to get new brake pads?
