hey, I have noticed that whenever I pull off there is a squeak/screech sound (kind of like when breaking). I'm not too knowledgeable on cars so haven't got a clue what it could be, it only generally happens after iv started the engine and drive away, and doesn't happen every time.

not sure if I have given enough info here but thanks in advance for the help
 
Hi and welcome.
Handbrake sticking perhaps? Being as it happens when you first pull off, is it after having the handbrake on?
 
Brake squeal. Likely when setting off perhaps due to hill assist if your car has it (facelift). Just clean your brakes and put some copper slip on the clips.

yeah its after I release the hand brake. it didn't happen yesterday so I guess Ill see how it goes. is this anything to worry about?

thanks for the help :)
 
Yeah I think it may have something to do with my hand break as when i park on a hill (I live on a hill) I have to apple the hand break a couple of times to stop my car from rolling back. I have recently bought the car but i did check through the service history etc and it was recently serviced but might just take it to my local dealer to get it checked out. cheers all
