squealing/"wowlin' noise from the rear - bravo HGT

[Anonymous]

hi people,
after a couple of hours lookin at past threads, nothing found.

ive got this strange noise problem comming from the rear suspension...
a very highe volume squeal from the rear, changed the discs and pads on all four wheels-nothing.
usualy it starts after a 20-30 mins drive, high speed, low speed same problem (at high speed the
sound is a bit difference, higher decible) BUT! IF I PUSH THE BRAKES (or liftin the handbrake) WHEN IT STARTS THE NOISE STOPS,letting go and THE NOISE COMES BACK!

any ideas anyone?

could it be the rear bearings? if so how come liftin the handbrake stops the noise for a while?

HELP please......

Most likely the bearing. Did you not spin the wheels to see if they rotated smoothly when you did the brakes?

yep, did that...nothing noticed....

changing the rear bearings's expensive? maybe ill do that just to eliminate another "source"..
any other opinion's?

£30 each.
