Someone, please.. Help me get rid of this irritating noise!

It's coming from the front driver's side wheel. The sound is exactly like the subject line descibes, and increases frequency proportionaly with increase or decrease with speed. It stops when braking or cornering. Recent work: new brembo vented rotors, pagid pads (POS.. never seen pads so dusty in 10yrs of bricking), and new calipers with a couple new pipes as well. There is no grinding or deep howling sound like it would be bearings... but could it be? I've popped the wheel and cap off to get at the outer bearings and put a load of grease in there. Extreme buildup of dust somewhere in the caliper/pads? The squeaking did diminish a bit after i washed the car. At that moment I didn't have the time to disassemble everything and get at the inner bearings. Now i've got a few days off coming up and feel it's time to rid the squeaky mouse from the car!!


thx... Scott
