Elusive squeak at front driver side wheel

I changed the wheel bearings on the front driver-side wheel last year and that did not get rid of the pulsating squeak (squeaks faster with higher speed).

Yesterday I changed the brake pads, and unfortunately the squeak is still there

What could it be?

Oh, and I also changed the front sway bar end links so that, of course, could not possibly be the problem

Re: Elusive squeak at front driver side wheel

caliper piston sticking a little bit or maybe a slightly warped rotor. if it gets faster as the wheel gets faster its got to be one of the two. or even the caliper is binding up on its mounting bolts that it slides back and forth on. you can lube those bolts up to.
