I think this is a CV Joint, but I've had them go bad in other saabs and they typically make a popping noise on acceleration when failing. This problem definitely isn't the brakes. My dilemma, the sound started out as a rubber sounding squeaking noise at slow speeds, now if I am driving through a parking lot it is so loud and noisy everyone gawks at my car.
The noise is not there on acceleration or cruising speeds. When I start slowing down or apply the brakes you hear the loud rubber squeaking sound. It is now starting to sound like metal grinding metal. Yet just slightly applying a small amount of acceleration and the sound stops.
Could it be a defective CV joint? They were both replaced about 40k ago. I got under the car and all the boots on everything were fine. I even checked the grease in the CV joints and they were fine. It is just the weirdest thing. Please help if anyone knows what this could be. Thanks.
