hey, i recently went down a bumpy dirty road that was like corrigated iron (dont know if this is the cause) but now my car has developed a squeak (similar to squeaky brakes) only it does it when im cruzing not accelerating as soon as i touch the brakes even before they touch the disc the squeak goes away.
Also i think this is related...when i go round a sweeping left bend no other corners only left (so the top of the steering wheel is like at 10 oclock) a loud ticking develops like something.

there doesnt seem to be any affect on handling however im not keen to push it hard and find out until its fixed.

just wondering if anyone has had a similar problem or has n e idea what it is.

Sounds like you got **** in your brakes, give em a good hose (when they're cold)out to see if you can get rid of it. Hopefully you havent got a stone stuck in the pad. Keep a close eye on the discs for scoring starting to develop. If you have the skills pull out the pads and check em. :D
