Hello all,

I have a 2010 Renault Clio.

When I am driving there is a high pitched squealing/squeaking noise coming from the drivers side, no matter what speed. I have attached a link to a video so you can hear what I'm talking about.

It also makes a different squealing noise every time I apply the brakes. The brake discs have been checked recently when I had my MOT.

The video: https://streamable.com/hztgr

If anyone can give me any insight into what might be causing these noises it would be greatfully appreciated.

Thanks a lot

I can't hear it, must be a very high pitch, above my audible range.

Brake pads rattling against the caliper will make a high pitch squeal. Copper grease used to be used to dampen the pads against caliper. Newer pads have a kinda pad on the back that does the same thing.
Wheel off and have a look

Mot doesn’t always get a good view of the inner pad so quite likely it could be the inner pad worn down to the metal scratching tab on the pad that gives you early warning that your pads are nearly worn out ,
