Of course I forgot to mention that I only get a squeak from the front right wheel, and that it never shows up whenever I take the car down to let the service folks hear it. I think they're beginning to suspect that I'm hallucinating about this ;) That said, I've never had this problem with the pre-owned 9-5 Wagon that I bought last year.
