I recently bought a 07 GT and recently discovered a squeaking noise coming from the drivers side front wheel while braking? It is faint while in park but is very audible when coming to say a stop sign? Any ideas on what it is and possibly how to fix??

Hey @SpartaPerformance sorry I've been busy lately, but I found it to be the caliper and I'm really thinking its dry pistons

Possible, any dry contact points can make creaking type noises such as when caliper piston hits brake pad mounting plate, or where the pads lay on the caliper brackets.
