Squeak squeak. What? Hellpppppp
 

Hi Everyone!

I am living in this annoying cycle of "We don't know" right now, and I am wondering if someone can help me out.

Currently my car is making a noise.. Shocker right? Here is what is happening.

When slowing down to a stop from a slow rate of speed, I am hearing a creaking noise from the left front. My mechanic has had the car all day, and we have no idea what it is. I am picking up the car with no resolution, and am dreading a potentially expensive visit to the chevy dealer. I have replaced the rotors, brake pads, and even the left brake caliper bracket and pins, after I found a tear in the slide pin boot, and rusty nasty pins. It was best for me to just replace all that. It is still doing this after everything was lubricated properly. It is driving me crazy, but could not find any information anywhere for a possible cause / resolution to the issue, same with any TSBs that I could see. This noise is apparent when the car is under 5 miles an hour to the stop if this is helpful to anyone.

It is a 2010 1LT

Does the noise stop if you let off the brakes at that slow speed?

Lower Control Arm bushing. Easy to test; car in park push the top of each front tire fore and back; if the wheel moves and the car does not bad bushing.

Sometimes described as "it feels like the wheels keep moving when coming to a stop".

Any mechanic that thinks a dealership mechanic knows more than he is not worth your money. They went to the same trade schools.

Thanks for the replies!

it goes away once I let off the brakes but if i press down down again it makes the same noise again.

thanks I'll check that out too !

Check the upper strut mounts.

According to the thread title it's a squeak, not a clunk...

Going off of what blue said, check your center sway bar bushings. I was getting something between a clunk and squeak when mine were going. Switched to energy suspension and now it's a real squeak when cold lol. Poly is worth the squeak though lol.
