One question for you guys....

Okay, I have a problem with my 02 wrx. Every time I turn to the right and let the clutch out of 1st (or 2-5th gear), the car makes a noise....like a squeaking sound. I looked under the car, even jacked up the car and pulled off the front tires and turned it to the right and I still couldn't figure it out. It seems to be coming from the hub, or the axle somewhere. Do you guys have any suggestions as to what is causing this? If I let the car sit for like a week and then start driving it, it doesn't make the noise until about 2 hours of driving and turning...its weird....help

Turned out to be the Front hub Bearing. I replaced it and now its perfect. Thanks for all the help.

it could be bad axles...or it could be as simple as bad brakes. I had a similar problem and it turned out to be just my breaks were wearing off. But then again if the car is making the sound with out you moving then most likely its your axles
