Why does my sway bar make a squeaking noise?
These sway bar bushings can cause squeaking and/or even thunking noises when they get old. You can even progress to spraying the rubber bushings that the spring ends sit on, to the extent that you can access them. Silicone spray cannot do any harm, and in this case it may be the solution.

Why does my car make a grinding noise when I drive?
Wheel Bearing Failure In some cases, this squealing noise may be due to a worn out axle or wheel bearing. The bearings act as a buffer between the wheel and axle and when they wear out, there is friction, leading to squealing. If the problem is ignored for long, the wheel bearing noise will transform from being a squeal to a grinding sound.

While driving at 30 to 40 MPH on an empty road, turn your steering slight left then right, almost like you’re safely weaving in your lane. Wheel bearing noise (especially in the front) will be amplified when you you make that turn since physics allow more weight of the car to be transferred to one side of the car.

What should I do if my front tire is squeeking?
Check the chart in your owner’s manual for the recommended air pressure for the tires on your car, then inflate them to that specification. Do not assume that a tire that looks good has the correct air pressure. Many cars are equipped with a sounding device called a wear indicator as a part of the front brake pads.
