took my 2002 to the dealer for the same noise they said it needed front brake pads they looked fine to me and I'm a mechanic. we paid them for the repair of the brake pads and the noise went away??? I think the dealer performed an additional repair under warranty that fixed it and charged us for a un needed brake job !!!
