Have developed a loud squeak on the left rear of the chimaera and it is worse when taking left handed bends, no sound at all on right corners some squeaking on strait road and mostly at low speed from standstill upwards, Have jumped up and down on the car and does not squeak at allwhen stood still, Any ideas would be nice thanks Ron

The fact that it doesn't happen when stationary would suggest it was triggered by wheel/drive shaft rotation. Could it be a rubbing noise rather than a squeaking noise?

Had exactly the same thing, in the same place as well. Miraculously disappeared after doing a track day (brake pad rubbing?).
