I hear a short quick sometime repetitive sometimes not sound, coming from the wheels. This happens at really low speeds and also when I turn. Just changed front brake pads and the rotors were within the 28.5mmm minimum thickness. Just started hearing it today only because it was warm enough to roll down the windows, LOL. So I suspect it might have been squeaking since I changed my pads a month ago. Bearings, brake dust, suspension parts, etc... any suggestions?

Rear ball joints will squeak when worn. I only noticed it when I got out of my car and the rear squeaked. I thought it was my seat for a second then realized it was coming from the rear wheel.
