   Hey guys ive had this problem, the car makes a constant really loud when driving squeely squeeky sound, high pitched and so fucking annoying, well i jacked the car up and spun the wheel and it made the same squeely squeeky sound but obviously quieter, then i took the wheel off and spun the disk and it still does it, i noticed that the inner part of the driveshaft connecting to the gearbox is making the squeely squeeky sound but i dont have a clue why ?? ive just change both droplink,s because i was getting severe knocking when driving along any bump road, thats all stopped now but im sure i got a little bit of kocking when turning right ??
   
   I am in the middle of uploading a video to show you guys the sound ...
   
   anyone shed light please

   i have the same problem and when i jacked my car up and got the wheel off i noticed my cv joint behind the disk was dry. And when i sorted that the squeeking squeeling noise dissapeard but then it occurd again to find i need 2 new lower arms due to the fact my bushes has peerished.
   when i read up on this in the manual it all leads to your suspension and stearing components

   Possibly a new driveshaft fellas.
   
   Or just keep oiling it up!

   my cv boot was loose at the wide end so i stook my fingers in ( engine not running ) and found very little grease on there if any to be fair. just take your ties off the cv boot (side cutters required) and move the boot till it slides off and just have a feel.
   
   just have to hand a cv boot kit and some cv grease halfords sell it at £6 for a tub and a cv boot kit aint dear from many places
