Default Squeaking when I turn right??

Ok, the car is making some kind of squeak/squeal when I turn right at low speeds. It sounds almost like break squeal, but it does it when I'm not using the brakes. And it doesn't make the sound when I turn left either....thoughts?

Smile axle bearing

Could be a axle bearing taking a dump, when you turn right it loads that axle, and that could be why you hear the sqeaking, if it's going bad, they usually start cutting a groove into the axle, i'd pull the wheel off and check it, it's possible it could be the brakes also, if the pads are worn, either way, if you pull the wheel, you ought to be able to trace it down. Good Luck,

You don't have to be touching the brake pedal for your brakes to squeal..

Could be that metal warning layer.....

yea, but it only makes this sound at low speeds when turning right; no sound going straight or left; wouldn't the break squeal all the time? I think the axle bearing theory sounds good; I'll check it this weekend
