Hey guys,

Not sure if this is the correct place to post, but it shall do for now.

For a while now i have been hearing a Scraping type sound from where i believe, in the Front Passenger side wheel... Only when i'm turning Left.
Any type of turns as well, little vears to the left, to hard turns, so its not the Power Steering either.

Its making a "shhhch shhhch" type sound if you can try understand that haha.


Through maintenance and servicing, i've had the wheel bearing tightened, both cv boots changed, and the brake pads aren't even at half way yet.
I've taken the wheels off and thoroughly cleaned and looked for anything caught, or scraping.

The sound was there before i installed my coilovers, and before my new rims i believe.

So it's got me quite stumped.


It SOUNDS as if its coming from the front when i stick my head out, but it could be transfering from the back of the car.

So if anyone has ANY help at all, it would be great. Its not a big concerning problem, but it's bugging the hell out of me.


Thanks smile.gif

well from my past experience when my friend and I changed my clutch. We disconnected the left side of the control arm to the bottom half of the strut in order to take out the axle and slide the transmission out and under of the car on the left hand side. There was a loud occurring noise when we would take right (being that the gravity would being pulling towards the left side of the car) turns and it would occasionally come up again when driving in a straight line. We were so confused as to what it was that it ended up being the brake dust cover. We had bent it. You know that cover that goes behind the brake rotor and has slits in it so I guess cool air can get to it. If you don't understand what part I'm talking about I'll try and get a diagram up.
