There's a mouse hiding somewhere over my right front wheel

Well not really, but there's a slight squeek when I go over a speed bump and also a slight hi-pitched sound (almost like band slipping on its wheel) first thing in the morning, disappears after 20-30 secs. Tis a W220 y2000, is there something that can be greased or wd40'd, it's not major just a little thing, or would it have something to do with the break lining wear light I'm getting as they're being done tomorrow.

The sound you describe is probably the alternator pulling a high load to replace the battery charge after starting, completely normal.

I had a similar noise a couple of months ago. Turned out to be a worn rubber bush on the anti roll bar.
