    Squeaking noise
    It happens when I drive on the high way but when I drive on a regular street the noise doesn't happen. Seems like noise only happen after 35-40 mph. any suggestions? It makes this loud squeaking noise and its intermittent like it'll go up and down with regards to the sound it makes.

    Thanks in advance

    Wheel bearings? Struts?

    The link below will provide perspective on replacing the wheel bearings:

    Around 125,000 to 150,000 miles on Hondas, wheel bearings, struts, lower ball joints, and outer tie-rod ends tend to need replacing. In the long-run, it's easier and cheaper to replace all of these parts at the same time. Afterwards, the car will handle and ride like new.

    Noises are tough to describe and the source and direction are difficult too.
    I had a noise once that sounded like a vacuum leak and only at similar speeds to those you describe.. I was determined to find it and spent numerous hours in trying including dismantling a large portion of the dash.
    Finally out of desperation and running out of things to try I put masking tape around the windshield gasket and the noise stopped. After much inspection I found a pinhole in the gasket which I sealed and never heard it again. Just a long shot from the 'what it's worth dept.".
