Default Need Help wat does it mean wen my car is making a squeaking noise, like a rusty wagon wheel noise...

It sounds like it is coming from the rear right of the car but i think it only happens when the wheel is turned so it's prob from the front (it is not the steering pump noise)car has near 52k miles on it and i live in Chicago if it makes a difference and it's not too cold today (34). It happens at lower speeds... at least i don't hear it at high speeds but then agan i never have the music down. Happens on level surface and squeaking is heard when the car is in motion... once again like a rust wagon wheel
Thanks for your input

Default mine sounded like a rusty wagon wheel. It is not a cv. What else could it be other than a hooker in

his trunk?
