General Squealing when turning right

[chrisb7777]

Hi there

In the last 100 miles my cinq seems to make a squealing noise which is coming from the rear passenger side wheel. It does this from around 5mph up.

I don't have to be turning very hard at all but it doesn't get louder the more i turn

Can anyone suggest what this could be?

Any help appreciated
Thanks!

Thats what i first thought, but i jacked up the car and the is 0 play in the wheel and it spins freely so im not too sure now..

Check the handbrake levers are moving freely. Could be bad compound on the rear shoes (contains metal fragments).

Check the handbrake lever and it moves ok but not as far as the other side. Is it worth taking the wheel off and having a look inside?
I havnt checked wheel bearing off my list yet, just want to go cheapest/easiest first

Yes. Then you can check what the wheel bearing feels like, too.
