When I drive very slowly (car in drive but gas pedal isn't pushed) as well as press on gas pedal slightly, I hear a very annoying squeal. It happens when the steering wheel is straight and when I turn the steering wheel. It squeals when I do not brake and it squeaks when I do brake. So I know it cannot be a steering wheel fluid or a brake problem. I had this problem before I put wheel spacers on and I have this problem after I put wheels spacers on. I have no clue what it could be.
Car gets tires rotated often as well as suspension aligned often. Any suggestions are appreciated!

Everything on my car is stock besides the fact that I have a muffler delete as well as bootmod3 but I've had this squeaking since before that :/

After I drive for a little bit, the squeaking doesn't come back when I drive slowly. But when it's parked for a little while, the squeaking comes back when I start driving slowly again.

i hear this from my brakes at slow speeds either on the brake or off. it goes away once the brakes are warm but squeaks little at very low speeds stopping at a light (coasting up to it) and pulling away.

How is the parking brake engaged in these cars? Is it it drum-in-disk like older cars? I know i have had a similar issue on other cars with this setup where the squeal would come from the parking brake pads in the drum.
Does messing with the parking brake while rolling slowly affect the sound? |

Oh so do you think if I change my brakes, I would not have this problem anymore?

maybe try putting grease on the pads where they contact the metal of the caliper first. whats the service status on your front and rear pads in idrive?
