Phantom noise, Please help.
I changed rotors and brakes last weekend, now I have a squeak that will come and go. It will slow when I slow down. I took it to some one to see if they could find it but they could not get it to make any noise. By the time I got it home it was doing it again. Sounds like it is in the drivers front. I did not put new bearings in it because they looked fine, just cleaned and repacked them good. I'd think if it was a bearing it would be make a different sound and making it all the time. Any ideas what it could be?

I had the same problem...The squeak is coming from the inner dust seal on the spindle shaft that ride against the rotor. If it doesn't seat properly it with start to spin and the metal washer in the seal will rub on the spindle and Walla, it chirps every time it spins. This drove me crazy the first time I did my brakes. Good luck.
