My 99 Toyota Carolla has a squeek only when the wheel is turned sharp. Car still drives fine, but the squeek is almost like metal on metal. Thanks in advance for your help!

Well, I can tell you my 92 jetta had a squeak when the wheels were turned full stop. Loose PS belt. Pump works harder at fullturn, would make the belt slip. Mine started only in the rain, then it would squeal even in the dry at full turn.

Its a squeek that is not like a belt slip, it is more of a metal on metal squeek!

Where is it coming from?

If coming from a wheel only while turning in one direction (always the same) look for a bad wheel bearing.
