I have a 2009 xl reg cab. I noticed the other day a squeal/squeak in the front end. This only occurs when driving at slow speeds <40. It sounds like it is coming from the drivers side. I also noticed when i drive intown it seems to be on rythm with the tire rotation. Any help is appricaiated.

i just got an 06 xlt crew and it is doing the same thing. The squeal on mine stops when i put the brakes on (hard or soft). i was told that the squealers on the pads will make noise until the brakes are applied so i will be checking the pads when i get time. if anyone has any other advice or agrees with that let us know please.

thanks, Kyle

Hate to bring this back to life but the squealing has started again. It stopped for awhile when i had the rotors resurfaced. Now the squeal is back. Only happens after you drive for awhile and the brakes get hot. Then its at only slow speeds under 30. The squealing stops when you apply the brakes. Any new ideas

Well finnaly figured it out after a trip to the stealer and then to my mechanic. Found it to be the pads were fitting too tight to the caliper clips. After grinding them down and putting a little grease on them no more squeals and pads float freely.
