Annoying squeek from front wheel?

I have an annoying squeek which disappears when I touch the break. Only seems to happen after driving for a little while then won't go. Any ideas or anyone had a similar problem?

Thanks

Either a brake caliper sticking or handbrake sticking, with the rotation of the wheel it is getting hot and expanding hence why its happening after driving for a while. Well thats my guess anyway.

I has the same noise on mine, turned out to be faulty brake pads! I stripped and cleaned the pads 3 times, after changing them for original pads the noise stopped.

I sent the pads back and after a few weeks got a refund!

What pads did you fit? Mine were changed not so long ago so wonder if it is the same thing!
