Squeal from rear pass. side

Hey,

For the past week I have had this squeal that is coming from the rear passenger side wheel. It goes away when I am on the brakes and is most noticeable when turning to the right(even just slightly). I just replaced my rear shoes the other day so I am pretty sure it is not the brakes...what else could it be? wheel bearing?

It's the brakes.

Check the front ones. Don't be so sure it's the rears. I'll bet it's the "audible wear sensor" on the right front pads.

Alright...I'll check them (the front brakes) tomorrow...

They are less than a year old so I don't think it would be the audible wear indicator but who knows.

did you adjust the back brakes up manually when you did them? that could be it too, dont depend on the self adjusters cause they're crappy and never work.
