Default Care Bear Orgy

I had my new clutch installed almost a month ago now. Since than I hadnt really driven my car.

But now out of no where it sounds like a care bear orgy in my trunk it squeeks it squeals and I cant figure out just what it is at this point. Name:  Killer_Care_Bear_Family_1_by_Undead.jpg

I noticed it more when I turn the wheel and sometimes when I brake I get a little almost thumping kind of noise.

I tried to get it on video to present to all of you but my vids suck.

Any suggestion?

Squeek, squeel, thump with turning and braking? I'd be looking at your rear brakes, and THEN suspect a carebear orgy, of course

The squeaking/squealing could be the central locking pump impeller about to blow its load, but i can't imagine why that would get worse with turning??

Better have it checked out unless you like to get dirty..? If it's not brake related I'd guess it's conrtol arm related, also. Not much else to squeek in your trunk area.... Or is there?

Guess that narrows it down to a care bear orgy
