My 2007 Hyundai Sonata started making this high pitched chirping/whistling sound around 17,000 miles. The noise starts after driving over 5 minutes and stops when I put my foot on the brake. Sometimes the noise goes away without braking. It's very loud and annoying !

could be your serpentine belt. usually when they get worn they will start to either slip or cause a very high pitched screeching noise. to verify that is the cause get some water or brake clean in a spray bottle and spray it on to the belt while the vehicle is running. if the noise goes away for a moment you found your cause. if not then its something else. Hope this helps
locate the waste-gate and see if you can cover it temporarily while driving. see if this changes it any. It could have a pin sized hole in the diaphragm. just a guess.
not sure what type of noise it was? sometimes if the starter drive gear is worn out they stick and that is a loud noise, not very serious. starter drive is only a few dollars, but its a little more for labour. if it is the starter drive usually it wont actually start the car it will just spin then if you let go and re start a few times it catches and starts it up still. hope this helps , good luck
This may sound strange but have someone check out your radio system. Sometimes an antenna wire or wires, when jared loose will make that ear piercing noise. It may not be the problem but it's worth looking into.
