sound from wheels and brakes

[Jyde]

Hi all,

I am getting a sound from the wheels of my LEXUS IS250 when the car is in motion. i have checked the tyres and the brake pads and they are fine. Another thing I noticed is that the steering is a bit stiff on a cold morning and later better when car is warm. i also hear a faint sound (apart from the normal squeaking) when i depress the brakes. there is also some pulling to the side and the car is not pulling faster than i think it should (maybe it's just me). Can anyone recommend solution to this?

As well, you might need to consider wheel alignment (check if tires are evenly worn). I had funny steering when my A/C pump was about to go - try turning A/C on and off and see if that has any impact to the steering.

 

BTW I believe IS250 has electronic power steering, so no oils or fluids are needed.
