You are going to need to be a LOT more specific. Like when you break, accerate, and like where the noise is comming from.
 






sorry about that...

it happens when my car is moving, but i only really hear it when i go slow 10 mph. It makes no difference if i hit the brakes or the gas. I think it is coming from the front wheels...only when it is really cold outside
 






Here are a few possibilities:

Belt slipping do to condensation.
frozen calipers.
 






probobly is the caliper. now that i think about it when i changed my brakes, one side was much more worn then the other...rats that is quite costly
