Help! Squealing sound when moving off...

[cts1984]

Anyone experienced this before or have any idea? Squealing sound sometimes when car moves off from stationary and at very low speed (~ 20km/h)

Many thanks

Is the sound coming from the wheel or brake? A sharp scratching sound?

Can't really tell if its from wheels or brakes but its a eeee eeeee eee sound. No brakes applied though. Just when moving off have the sound.

I had the same problem, sent back to PML for rectification at the same time for servicing. Service advisor claimed its from handbrake. 1 day job as they need to access the problem from undercarriage. After that no more sound.

Seems like u have the same problem as i did . The sound only comes after releasing the brakes not while applying the brakes. For me it usually happens when going up hill an especially turning right. I suggest that u try to identify the wheel that is making the noise and go for brake servicing or cleaning outside. If u bring the car back to pml they will want to charge u 200 bucks for brake servicing and even ask u to change the brake pads. Crazy buggers.
