chirping noise coming from 07 tahoe
i have a "chirping" noise that sounds like its coming from the front right tire area when i drive. it gets faster as i accelerate but can only be heard at low speeds. my mechanic took off the wheels and said that the brakes and wheel bearing are all in good condition...any ideas what this could be?

does it go away when you step on the brakes?

man hard call. the only thing I can think of is if the rotors were warped and wore down that area of the pad and the scraper is getting into part of the rotor... I guess you could pull the pads and try to eyeball them to see, but if you can't tell there the only way would be to pull the rotors and have them mic'd, it'd be the only way to know "for sure" it ain't the brakes...
do you feel a pulsing in the brake pedal under braking (esp hard braking)?

nytahoecop07, have you ever gotten an opinion from your dealership to see if they might have a bit more insight into this issue or are you looking to fix this on your own at this point? Thank you.
