My 1.9 jtd elx has started to make high pitch screeching noise from the ?frs wheel. No brake shoe indicator light showing on dash. Any help appreciated!

thx :)
 
little more info.
does it appear under braking?or go away under breaking?
never ever rely on brake indicators.if your unsure of doing it yourself you can always go to a local tyre/brake place and get them to whip the wheels of and check the brakes.
though if they mention new discs etc have a look yourself before you cough up any cash
 
from a PM :)

the noise DOES stop on breaking, but then returns after a little while.
It takes about 15 mins. from starting the car and turning onto the motorway before it starts. Then it comes and goes. Thanks for the info' !
Much appreciated.

probably a rubbing pad or a worn down pad!! best bet is whip that wheel of and have a look,could be as simple as something wedged in the pads but a worn down pad will eat into the disc in no time and cost a lot more than just a pad change
