Audiworld Expert Advice Needed....Couple Issues!
Strangest thing, my car has developed a strange squeaking noise from the front driver side wheel, but goes away when I press the brake pedal ever so slightly. Now, my shop told me it was my brakes overheating, but that doesn't sound right. They also said my brakes had about 50% left, which I confirmed. So, are one of my pads loose, or the brake lines need to be bleed? Looking for some insight. Also, when I am coming to a stop on any sort of incline/decline during initial startup, there is a loud creaking noise. Do you think that is the front control arms, or loose motor mounts, or something of that nature, because it sounds as if something is loose, and creaking. I am thinking control arms because there is a quick clicking noise sometimes when I reverse quickly. Any ideas, insight, because my shop told me everything looked good, but there has to be something wrong. Thanks!

Squeaking could be loose pads
Does it happen if you hit holes/speedbumps? Coat the rear of the pads with some anti-squeal compound and the squeal should go away. No idea about the other issue.
