94 Sunbird LE - Front End Problem...

[TheOtherLen]

Hello...

This being my first post in this forum, I thought this might me a good one for me to post...



First of all, I have a 94 Pontiac Sunbird LE (2.0l model) with ABS.

The problem that is driving me insane is a front squeal, like metal rubbing hard against metal.

This only happens when I make sharp-ish left turns and is more apparent when I have passengers.

It doesn't happen all the time, mostly on warm days (that I have noticed).

Everything else seems to be fine.

What the **** could be the problem? I recently changed the front brake rotors and pads to see if that would help as I don't see any cracks in the CV boots (inner and outer) on the left or right side of the car.

When the pads/rotors were changed, I had the guy look to see if there were any problems and he couldn't find anything out of the ordinary - and the pads were pretty much gone (with rust here and there).

Any help on this would be appreciated...

Also, while I am posting, does anyone have or know where I can find, a schematic for the 94 sunbird's electrical system - I suspect corrosion somewhere as my Rear Window Defogger and automatic door locks are not operational anymore...

I have a simular problem on my 91 Sunbird.. I've concidered checking my front-end bearings.. Maybe something for you to look at..
