Hi, had my ep3 type r for a month now, and recently its been sort of making a creaking sound when coming to a stop at low speeds, the sound sort of matches the wheel speed if you can understand where im coming from, has anyone got any ideas what it could be?

It sounds likes its coming from the passenger front, i took of the wheel and looked over the pads and disk and they all looked fine. Its starting to bug me now so want to get it fixed.

Sort of sounds like this in this video.

Had the same problem with my 2001 CRV a few weeks ago; local inde stripped the front brakes and lubricated the front caliper slider pins which cured the problem.
