Hey guys, i get this weird squeek as my car comes close to a complete stop, and starts accelerate slowly. Any suggestions?? its makes like this annoying sound when coming close to a stop, and than as i begin to accelerate it starts again, once i get to about 15mph it stops.

Is the sound from the exterior of the car? Can you be more specific as to what it sounds like?...have you changed your brakes lately?

Filipe, i have a 2000 GS 300 and i have the SAME problem the sound seems to come from the front left of my car, but im not too sure. if anyone knows anything, please post. thanks.

Exactly!!!!! We must have the same problem Its coming from the exterior, front left side. Have you heard anything about this??? Anyone out there have any suggestions??? Brakes pads were changed over a year ago

Does the speed to the sound increase with wheel speed?

Sounds like a wheel bearing needs lubed?

Have you been to the dealer yet?

It doesn't increase with speed, it only comes up when the car is about to stop, or about to accelerate. same noise, the noise doesn't increase with speed, or wheel turnin, its a steady anoying sound

well, the noise i hear only comes when i start to accelerate or im just about to stop. the weird thing is that i dont always hear the noise (maybe i dont pay attention at all times). anyway, the noise doesnt increase w/speed, but i did think about the ball bearing, and i havent been to the dealer yet b/c like i said before, i dont always hear it, and knowing my luck, the dealer wont hear it either... if ANYONE knows ANYTHING, please inform us, thanks.

Since it is the front wheel and at low speeds, have you thought about jacking the wheel up and spinning it by hand?

NO, I have not but i will try. Has anyone else had this problem?? I want to bring it to the dealer, but, I had one question. If i bring it to a dealer, and since I've done engine modifications ( intake ), voiding the warranty will they keep record of that?? I mean becauseI would like to sell my 98 GS this summer, and still want to have the Powertrain warranty on it. Any suggestions?

The squeek is getting louder!!!
