Frint Tire Squeal when turning

Rider · Sep 27, 2010

I've developed a front tire squeal in my 2005 Eddie Bauer 4WD. At low speed (idle) in 2H when the steering wheel is in the fully locked position left or right. Could there be something wrong with the front differential? Haven't tried it in 4WD but I assume that would be normal to hear that in 4WD.

Does it have air suspension? I noted just recently when I had the air shut off for serviceing and forgot to turn it back on, the front tires rubbed at full lock to the side. Just a little, but I assumed it was due to the low height with the bags deflated.

mine squeal like crazy so im getting new tires, how much wear do yo have on them?

If the tires are Continental, then it's probably the tires. lol.
Mine has just started to do it too, but I think with the cooler temps the air pressure has just dropped a bit and is causing it. But I have Continentals and they do have a tendency to squeal at moderate speeds even without a drop in pressure.

could mean you need more air or tires are worn, check air pressure and check tread wear

If it sounds like a high pitched tire squeel, then it probably it. I know mine did it in the parking garages with my worn tires. Still does it on some surfaces, but not nearly as much with the new tires.

As a side note, don't use the 4wd and turn while on pavement.
