Mazda 2 - Chirping/cricket like sound - onedaymyfriend

Evening guys, I've recently passed my test and inherited the wife's 2008 Mazda 2. Unfortunately the car's developed an intermittent chirping/cricket like sound that's driving me mad. It only happens at approx 30mph, 40mph and 50mph. Between those speeeds and over 50 there's no noise until I start slowing down whether by using the brake or just coming g off the accelerator, then the noise comes back as the needle passes 50, 40 and 30mph. Discs and pads were replaced approx. 1k miles ago. Any advice would be sooo much appreciated. D

No offense but given your lack of experience I'd say take to a garage.

Sounds like you can re-create the fault so is should be diagnosable.
