Hollow Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 My 2000 Legacy has recently developed this high pitch squeal. It only happens when moving so I guess it's not a belt and doesn't happen in reverse. Also only happens between about 0-35 km/h and goes away after a few hundred metres. I've recorded what it sounds like from inside the car and posted it in the youtube clip below. (pictures are just me messing round when I first bought my Legacy) Anyone have an idea what might be causing this? Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaz345 Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Automatic or manual transmission? If automatic, does it change or go away when it shifts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hollow Posted February 15, 2013 Author Share Posted February 15, 2013 It's a manual transmission. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88wacaroo Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 I hate to sound stupid but it sounds like the brk.pad wear indicators.....or it has a pebble or something like that stuck around the caliper.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hollow Posted February 15, 2013 Author Share Posted February 15, 2013 I think you could be right, there is a road being re-sealed round the corner so a stone could well have got caught... I should have thought of that!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
