I have a strange chirping noise from the brakes and I can't find much information online. It's not the normal squeak you get with used pads (plenty life left in them).
I jacked the front passenger side and removed the wheel. Pushed the ignition twice to get the brakes going, and had my wife press the brake pedal.
She would release, I would start turning the rotor by hand and I would hear the chirping for 3-4 seconds. Then it would stop chirping while I still turned the rotor.
She would brake/release again and I would start turning again the rotor. Same chirping for 3-4 seconds, and it does it when turning in either direction. I wasn't able to localize exactly where it's coming from.
The chirping doesn't happen when braking and releasing alone. Only after the wheels start turning.
I removed the brake pads on that side, greased everything, put them back... and it's still chirping.
I checked the front driver side and same chirping, maybe a little less. I didn't check the rear wheels.
Any ideas? The internet wasn't very helpful with this specific issue.
