I just recently bought a GTS300 2018. It has 7500 miles on the clock. It all seems to run fine and the brakes (pads like new) are good and is smooth at top speed. However after just setting off (when hot/cold) there is a squeak and it seems to come from the wheels. It is intermittent and does not always happen and after it happens it goes away quickly. There is no squeak when free wheeling and can happen when the brakes are not applied.

You may want to check the wheel bearing, I had to replace mine on my 2016 GTS300 at 10,000km (6K miles)

That's a good point! I still have some warranty so I'll check with the garage at some time soon.

Is it a big job?
