hey guys I've been having this really weird squeaking noise for sometime now coming from my front left tire/wheel/fender well area. It's a noise that speeds up and slows down with speed. But here's the thing that is sounding tricky to me. When I had it in the shop a while back I asked them to check it out for me and they said it wasn't coming from the rotors and that it was from the wheel well area. So that totally stumped me because I was just thinking my rotors were glazed. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated because this sound is getting super annoying.

well personally no I haven't, but the guys at the performance shop said they did, and it was coming from the suspension area but they couldn't place from exactly where.

I would pop the hood and check yourself. You might find something that nobody else has. Worth a shot.

So wow I guess the shop I took it to is extremely retarded because today I figured I'd look at the strange noise from the left wheel area and in about a minute I found what was causing the noise. One of my anti-rattle clips on the brake caliper was missing. So 7 dollar later I have the caliper kit from napa and 20 minutes after the car was put on jacks it's done and the squeaking noise is gone hip hip hooray!
