Front nearside sudden squeaking

Just took the car to the local shops and it's developed a loud squeaking noise from the front left hand side, seems to be louder the slower I get however does not disappear when i hit 30mph. Haven't used it much over the last couple of weeks so not sure if the rain and it being sat still has created a binding somewhere. No pulling to one side or any vibrations etc just this strange noise.
Got the Mrs to hold the phone by the window whilst we drove home and you can hear clearly it in the first few seconds but I cannot seem to upload anything other than a photo?
Thinking that the pads may have binded so was going to spray it with brake cleaner and to take it for a longer run and try to free things up but if anyone has experienced this and knows what it is then please pass on what you know.
Thanks

Does it stop when you touch the brakes?

It does but thats due to the wheels stopping, it happens when the wheels are rotating. Its bloody annoying!

That’s identical to mine.

It stops as soon as the brakes are touched so wondered if it’s a stone or similar stuck in the brake shield or calliper.

Do you have the Brembos? I’m going to try jet washing them over the weekend. TDV8 RRS HST in Java - Gone

Yeah they are Brembos - I'll have a closer look over the weekend as well, up to my eyeballs renovating the whole ground floor of the house so havent had a chance yet. Let me know how you get on with the jetwash blast please

Just to update since a good blast paying attention to brake shields the squeaking hasn’t returned on mine. That said in this current situation we haven’t been doing the mileage we were doing.

Did the jetwash thing and noticed whilst doing it that the rear n/s brake shield looked very close to the disc so used a screwdriver and prized it away, jacked each corner up and liberally sprayed some lubricant around all the linkages and moving parts - the noise then went so happy days I thought until today.......popped to the shops and on the way back it was back again. I have hardly used it recently and it hasn't had a good clean since last time so it's back on the to do list once I find the time away from this renovation at home ( which has now gone from a new kitchen to redecorated, dining room, utility, hallway and stairs! ).
Glad yours seems to have cleared itself up btw

I would check your hand brake shoe lining. Mine did this and would do it all the time except occasionally when braking but it was soon back. It then stopped as quick as it started and the started again 200 miles later. The brake lining was braking down and bits would get jammed until it wore away and then it would be fine....until the next chunk separated. I ended up replacing both discs (scored hand brake surface on the left), both sets of shoes and both sets of rear pads. 2012 5.0 SC AB
