Hi I wonder if can help me. My mondeo (2002 - 2.0 L) gets a rotational chirp when the front wheels are hot (takes about 20-30 mins to kick in) which stops when I brake. I have done the following to try and get rid of it

New Discs
New Pads - bedded them in - even roughed them up with sandpaper
New Caliper's
New Guide Pins
New brake hoses
I've checked the wheels & tyres over all seems to be normal
I've checked the bearings by jacking the car up and checking the wheel for movement. There is no play. The wheel also spins freely.

The noise is mainly the right hand side it gets quite loud. But occasionally sounds like it may be the left going as well. Soon as you brake it disappears. I think someone has hidden a couple of budgies in the wheel

I can not work out what it is and it is driving me insane

Any ideas what it can be? All help appreciated

Many thanks

Ian

 

Arb drop links first

Then suspension top mounts

Then springs

These are known issues with noisy mondeo front ends so they would be my next port of call

 

Thank you I'll take a look at your suggestions
