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

Don't pull them off, just jack them up and try to wiggle the whole wheel.

Here's a good video of basically what to look for in case you aren't quite sure. (can we embed videos here?)
