    SQUEAKING from back right tire

    hey i got one?!
    theres a rapid squeaking noise coming from my back right tire, i dont know if its the breaks or what. it happens when im driving at any speed and when i apply my brakes! any one know.

    its doesnt normaly sound like the usual brake problem.

    sounds like when you are messing around on the bed with your significant other on a squeaky bed at warp 3! thats the best comparison i can come up with sorry!

    can someone help?

      Also re-torque your LCA bolts. Too loose and they squeak. Too tight and the pop HARD!

        Hey I think I might have the same problem, It sounds like my left rear shock or something, I think that it's the bolts being too loose, cuz Ive heard you guys talking about it before, so My question is how tight do you tighten the bolts, where are they at? what do I all tighten

            Here's where the bolt is... click me

            It's the LCA bolt up front that needs to be re-torqued. You'll need to have a torque wrench set between 60-70 ft/lbs and torque them with the car flat on the ground (not jacked up).

            Good Luck! :D

                  I have a squeak in my front right tire. And it is the brakes on my car. If it is your brakes you will notice that the rotor is hot and feel the heat fom the brakes.
                  good luck
