Not your handbrake?

hmmm very similar noise to teh handbrake...and ford did adjust it recently.... would it be the case only one certian corners if it is teh handbrake?

On a particular sharp right-hand corner near my house, the same things happens to my car, except my squeak is more of a thump/bang followed by the engine instantly dropping to idle and then suddenly springing back to life as normal.
Search was hopeless so im also inerested to see the replies.

yea that squeaking noise is the rear brake calipers. there is a bit of movement in them for some reason. if you have the wheel off the car or can get ur hand on to the caliper, try forcing them to move and u'll hear that squeaking noise. i fixed it by getting a 15mm spanner and gave them a nip up...

but i also get a grinding/squeaking noise from the part were the handbrake line connects to the back part of the brake rotor but my handbrake needs to be adjusted as it sometime locks the wheels on the last click...
