Loud chirping? Brake noise?

[90Haccord]

My brake is making a loud "CHIRP CHIRP CHIRP" noise after 20-25 miles with stop and go traffic. Its loud as hell. It doesn't make this noise on quick trips around the town under 10 miles long. Doesn't make the noise at all on 100% highway travel UNLESS there was soild city traffic before I get on the highway, chirp's for 5-6 miles then stops.

If I tape my brakes the noise stops, then resumes. Noise is coming from driver's side front tire. Upon hearing the noise I pulled over and the Factory Alum(EX wheels) wheel was hotter then hell, I couldn't put my hand on it. It was that hot. The passenger's side rim wasn't hot at all, not cold, but I could lay my hand on it easily.

What do you guys thinking? Sticking caliper? I bought some heavy duty grease and a grease gun, thinking of jacking it up tomorrow and lubing the hell out of everything lol

Brake are brand new


My own guess is sticking caliper or more grease on the brakepads. Noise just keeps getting louder and louder once the brake gets HOT. Makes no noises at all on those quick in city trips.

it has to be a sticky caliper. Even though the brakes are new, idk what exactly you mean by that? new pads or new calipers and pads? But if the wheel is HOT like that then something's causing enough friction to heat the wheel up.

I'd jack up your car, take off the wheel and see what it looks like.

Could be your wheel bearing as well as your dust shield.

shh shhh shhh shhh shhh shhh thats how mine sounds when i hit the brakes it goes away

Does a wheel bearing making the rim smoking hot within less then 20 miles of driving? I'm hoping its just the brakes since when I tap the brakes sound goes completely away. If it was the wheel bearing, it would hum and be constant, not CHIRPING as I'm hearing from what I've heard about what happens when wheel bearing goes out.
