Unhappy horrible sounds from my car! Help!

Hi

I have a 94 Corolla, and its making these horrible sounds after driving in traffic, meaning going about 65mph, then having to quickly slow down, then speed up some more, and slow down. Also, the sound occurs on the slow down, and when I am not touching the break nor the accelerator. It also squeeks so much when i make turns and the sounds seems to come from near the hood on the drivers side. It does much complaining. My dad thought initially it was the CV thingie, and he changed it cause it was throwing a little oil, but it is still sounding the same, anyone with suggestions? Please? thanks!!!!

Does it only happen when your driving? Or does it make this sound when idling?

It made the sound upon slowing down. It sounded like something was spinning. It didnt make the sound when idling... But my dad figured out what it was after all. He found that a bolt on the opposite side of where he changed the CV thingie was only like 25 lbs screwed on instead of the like 150 lbs or however tight it is supposed to be. So he tightened it and voila! the sound stopped. Thank you though for your concern!
