Passenger side? Apart from funny one-liners about telling your wife to
get out if she is going to squeal every time you drift around those corners...
The most annoying squeal I had lately actually came from the clutch - my
fancy (and very wonderful) 'button' clutch. Every time I would
accelerate from a full stop, letting the clutch out would emit a squeal
that scared dogs and small children nearby. It was embarrassing. I was
told to just 'drive through it' and see if it went away, which it did
after a few weeks.
When does it squeal? Are you changing gears? Taking off or already
moving and accelerating? All the time?
