I have a new LCI 550i w/sport pckg. Turning left at speeds less than
25 mph produces an intermittent low pitched whine from the front
axle area. The noise can be attenuated or stopped w/ light pressure
to the brakes. Help.

This was just one of many symptoms I had when my brakes were making noise. Passport replaced them and my car has been silent since September. I presume since you're close by you might be a Passport customer also?
