squeeky Ebrake
 

hi, i get this squeeking sound everytime im driving. when i pull ebrake few notches the squeeking kinda goes away...im guessing something does not retract properly..any ideas?

rear drums they need to be serviced prolly needs some anti seeze

when does it squeek? what speed? does it change? more info

does it squeek as you let go of the brakes ? is it a 01-05 civic ?
probablty just needs servicing

well at low speeds like 30-40 i cant hear it, when i get up to 60+ it comes up...its not continiuos squeeking...its like sound-pause-sound...and faster i go the shorter the pause...but at 130+ i would think that it be one continiuos sound but it never is...thats why im wondering if its just the shoe in the drumbrake or smthing else..oh and also its a 93 civic

well im going to go right ahead and bump my old thread back instead of making a new one. anyways so i finally got around to pulling my drum brakes off. i checked the shoes and there is still a lot of beef left. there was some rust around the cover plate so i sanded/scrapped a lot of it off and while car was up i turned the wheel and it did not make any sounds. so i went of driving again and hey the squeeking is still there. So basicly the faster i go the more repetative the squeeking gets and it goes away if i pull my ebrake up or depress the brake pedal. the wierd thing is, if i just bearly touch the brake pedal the sound will go away. anybody has any ideas? the shoes move fine, i sprayed of that spray this is for squeeky brakes and now everything is nice and clean but problem is still not solved. also i do not want to bring my car to a shop since im really low in $$ so im trying to figure out the problem myself. any help guys?

I'm thinking wheel bearings. However it would be a constant noise at all speeds and goes away with a brake application.

eyah im not sure since i took the drum apart cleaned it...and whatnot and when i was putting the drum back on i turned the whole thing and nothing was touching...but i guess when the car is on its full weight it kicks in then. and the faster i go the more repetative the squeeking gets. also its pritty damn loud, so i have to drive around blasting my music with subs to overpower the squeeking :D

in that case your wheel bearing is toast

how much is the bearing and can i do it myself? if not approx time for shop?
