Can you tell me what is causing noise from right front wheel when braking lightly?e32selah - 2008 Land Rover LR2 - Brakes - 3/17/2013At about 25 mph, I hit a curb after sliding on ice.

3/17/2013 spanionneoSince it's not pulling to either side, we can exclude the health of the brake calipers. Given that these symptoms were born after a minor accident, it's very likely that you have bent your drive axle or your wheel bearing.

1/12/2013 JimmUsually this condition indicates a worn / faulty brake master cylinder. These are easy to replace - check the 'How-To-Guides' feature on the AutoMD website for the specific steps. Be sure to perform a bench bleed to the master cylinder - to remove the residual air - before the installation.
Try these websites; www.autopartswarehouse.com, www.partsgeek.com or www.rockauto.com for the replacement parts.
