    low pitch Squealing noise at low speed.

    I have a squealing noise on my Polo gti. It s happen when turning left and right. But now I notice it happen when straight too. The noise pattern is follow the wheel spinning and can happen without me pressing the brake . It's not happen all the time and I am thinking to book in for a check at the dealer but before I do that I want see anyone can give me some directions. As I know it will be likely unable to reproduce the noise at the dealer. So I just want to have bit more knowledge before I go. sorry for my description, is hard to explain in words. Any idea will be helpful. Power steering, bearing, shafts or any thing else.

    Is it when you might be accelerating, even slightly with low revs? If so there is a chance it's the supercharger clutch. I had it for about 5000kms and put up with it because since then it no longer squeals which I was told would happen, rather than letting some numpty apprentice pull the front of the engine apart only to forget to put something back and then have the same squeal return after a further 5000kms.

    I did accelerate little bit and also I just let it roll too. It not always happen and did go away when my car is travelled between 2000-3000km.it start again ard. 3100km.I not too worry if nothing serious and yes I don't want people undo my car unnecessarily.

    I have a similar problem too, when i accelerate at the light, sometimes there s a short squealing sound, but it doesn't happen all the time. Mine is a 2013 TSI DSG done around 9000km.

    Supercharger whine? It may sound silly, but it does sound like a squeal at times...

    Option 2. Check your power steering level, it may be low...

    Stoopid question, but you're sure if that's the case, it's not just brake squeal?

    It happen when im not step on the brakes. But may i ask is there any chance the pad still contacting the rotors even im not stepping on it. And when turnning to left it more likely to happen. So it may be the pad too new and have dust sometimes?
