really appreciated how lucky I was driving fantastic cars for almost 30 years and not having to worry about mechanical problems. A bloody squeaky noise from the rear wheel and no doubt the mechanics will tell me I need a new engine, 4 new wheels and a new roof. Anyone else had a similar experience with squeaky wheel(s) noise? btw, it happened when I reversed but now also happens when going forward at low speeds

worn rubbers
no big deal - but can be awkward to change

Not too expensive. About £40 a couple of years ago on a Saab 9-3 Aero.
