Hi there.
I have a 2010 Renault Clio extreme.

When going at low speeds there is a very loud squealing nose, sounds like it's coming from the front.

It usually happens when I am braking. But not always. Sometimes it happens when I accelerate, sometimes when I turn left or right..

I'm starting to get very frustrated with it. Anyone got an idea of what might be causing it?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for replying
The belts all seem to be fine, they have been checked.
Could it be dust on the break pads or something sticking?

What type of cars do you drive? Every car I have ever known has had break pads? 😂

Binding brakes can cause squealing. Check if one wheel is getting hotter than all the rest.
Thanks I will have a feel of the wheels next time I go for a drive
