Ok so I'm hearing a noise in my front driver wheel. It sounds like air coming out when I'm driving. When I hit the brakes it stops. when I turn the wheel it gets louder.

the first thing I would do before I even booted up the computer would be take the wheel off and check the brake hardwareOriginally Posted by bank2me
Well damn
Maybe its your brake disk guard thingy? Sometimes they get wacked out and start rubbing on the brake disk.
oh my bad, disc guard is not brake hardware ~~~but you can pry it out of the way without taking the wheel off so I am just e -tard-derd
Bitesize maybe thats what it is makin the noise but the f$%^ing pads squeal when applied and they're not even to the squealers. IDK
my brakes make noise when cold....does it do it all the time or cold/hot

Seems like when they get hot it does it.
if it happens every day most likely your calipers are hanging up (need a rebuild)
if it's only on some days or in the morning it's probably surface rust.
other possibilities are a worn wheel bearing (makes your car sound like you have offroad tires) or a wire dangling on the axles.
if the dust shield is rubbing the disk it will leave a slight groove in the disk that you can see on the inside face.
