I am having a problem with my rear suspension and/or braking system. It first noticed the problem a while back, whenever I backed out of my garage and onto my driveway my rear brakes would emit a light squeel as I slowed to a stop on my driveway. This was in reverse gear. But this also ocassionally showed up while I stopped at stop signs, but not all the time. Another odd sound came from my drivers(I think) side rear wheel. I was in a parking lot and it woudl emit a VERY loud screetch/squeel as soon as I got moving (about a second or a second and a half after I realeased my clutch). This only lasted for a few minutes, and when I came back and drove home the loud squeel was gone. What is this? and Why is it happeneing? I am also getting a creaking noise from my handbrake whenever I park it. I don't remember when this noise started, but whenever I park and pull up my handbrake and get out of my car the rear brakes (I'm thinking the parking brake) will creak. If I push the car lightly it creaks. This has me worrying that my e-brake is about to go, so I always keep my car in gear now when I park it. Why is this problem happening. I really have to take my car to a Toyota dealer. I have a 2001 GT-S with 13k on the odo, and my only mod is an AEM CAI.
