Annoying Squeaking Sound
I have a 2001 Mercedes S500 and just recently I started to notice an odd squeaking sound whenever I make turns (left or right). I can notice it from the inside and it is pretty noticable from the outside.
I can't figure out whether its coming from my tires or the suspension. I checked the tire pressure and everything looks fine. I'm thinking it is related to the suspensions. Any advice or comments would be greatly appreciated.

I currently have a mysterious schreaching sound as the car is about to come to a stop, or when accelerating. This is especially pronounced when making a turn and braking, or starting to accelerate and going around a corner. It kind of sounds like fingernails on a chalkboard. Of course the dealership cannot duplicate.
Does this sounds like your noise?
My thought was that maybe it was the brake pads when they are very close to the rotors, during initial deceleration and initial acceleration, when they just begin to part from the rotor.
