I Just noticed a nice annoying medium tone originating (where i believe) from my driver side rear when I start driving. Its definitely happening when no brakes are being applied in any manner.

It seems like my parking brake isn't fully releasing or something? Has anyone else experienced this? its really annoying and loud. Clearly not a sound a new LR4 should be making.

Thanks
Mike

How many miles? Front hubs going bad can start to squeak like that.

I believe I had the same problem at 6700 miles on my MY14.

The solution was the dealer took apart and reassembled the parking break - I haven't had a squeal since then (now at 15k miles).

BTW, I did manage to get a full set of new break pads for free as they were diagnosing the problem - so if you wanted to play coy you could extend the life of your brakes a bit :)
