If you are anywhere near Wellington, Somerset i can take a look for you before you return to Manchester.

would the cv joint squeal,i alway thought they clicked,,the only reasurance for me is there is no play in the wheel.really appreciate the help ive had on here with it so far

Now im really baffled,still think im going to get it checked out.
I notice this grease kind of resedue is also on the other side,but not as much.I may jack it it up in the morning and have another look round.

Was probably only a road chipping wedged between the caliper and disc. To check the boots, jack it up and while on full lock turn the wheel slowly while inspecting the 'stretched' boot, look for splits in the folds of the boot.
