Step 1 - Inspect and fix brake dust shield. Brake dust shields (sometimes called splash guards, splash shields, dust shields, and backing plates) sit between the brakes and the wheels. A bent dust shield may rub against the rotor and cause a screeching sound. Civic owners report that fixing the problem is as easy as pushing the brake dust ...

When I turn right to go up/down the ramps at my work car park, I can hear a scraping/grinding like noise coming from the front left (passenger) side of the car. Anyone else ever experience this? I also wanted to ask about suspension creaking noises that I also when going over speed bumps or cambers in the road any ideas?

Sometimes, the two broken ends of the wire stay together allowing the signal to pass; other times, when steering, the break opens up, and the signal is interrupted, making the ABS controller think the wheel has locked up. The controller responds by rapidly pulsing the brake on that wheel. The rapid pulsing sounds like a grinding or rubbing sound.

Most likely, the rubbing/grinding is the ball joint heat shield rubbing against rotor -- they tend to flex from rust/heat and start rubbing. If it is it -- then it is an easy fix -- just bend it back slightly.

1. Poor Wheel Bearings. If you are driving your car and it makes a noise when turning and it sounds like grinding, poor wheel bearings can be the cause behind it. Bearings act like a buffer between an axle and the wheel. Due to this, they prevent friction between the two moving parts.

Below are nine possible causes for this grinding noise when braking: 1. Bad Brake Pads Worn-out brake pads are the most common cause of this grinding noise. The brake pads on the backing plate get thinner as they are used over time. There will be portions of the backing plate that has no more pad in due time. Metal to metal contact will now occur.

Step 8 - Suspension noise: front wheel bearings. A steady grinding from the front that begins with forward motion and corresponds to speed—this noise indicates front wheel bearing wear. At a steady speed, swerve the Silverado slightly left and right. A bearing's grinding tone will change as the side load changes.

I just took mine in to get it serviced. I did notice there was a grinding sound coming from the front driver wheel well. I notified them cause the brakes look solid still. They said it was a bad bearing and they took care if it for no charge. So if it ain't your brakes then it might be your bearings. May 3, 2013 #13.

Having a grinding noise when cranking the steering wheel hard to the left. No noise that I can hear during normal driving or normal left turns. I thought it might be due to the strut tower recall issue as I could see through to the engine compartment before the repair was made but now that the repair has been made, the noise is still there.

I know that that CV shaft its worn (it's clicking pretty bad) and the boot is cracked but this noise isn't that. The noise is a scraping/grinding sound. (NOT a rumble)it's most prominent when going between 0-20km/h, and it's still very pronounced between 20 and 100km/h. above ~125km/h it's pretty much totally gone.

So the question becomes why does being in gear impact the scraping condition you're hearing from the front right area of the vehicle. Two things come to mind: 1) In neutral you are in a decelerating condition which places additional load (i.e. weight transfer) on the nose of the car just enough to mask the symptom.

Some of the rear differential gears rotate only during turns, so it makes sense you only heard the noise during turns. The typical reason for that is the gear oil is low for some reason. Suggest to monitor the gear oil level every month for 6 months or so to make sure whatever caused it to go low isn't still happening.

There was a hole in the pump due to the corrosion and that is what was causing the loud grinding noise when accelerating and a whirling noise when the engine is running. These noises were all connected to the faulty pump. The warranty did cover the issue and I'm happy with the service. C.

Grinding brakes have a lower pitched sound than squeaking brakes. Slowing down and stopping usually feels different when your brakes are grinding. You'll often be able to feel it too. Often, they'll make your steering wheel shake when braking as well. Squeaky brakes are typically an indication that the brake pads need replaced.

Ball joints should not cause grinding noises when turning. You can check ball joints by jacking up the axle you want check enough to stick a pry bar under the tire and pull up as if you're raising the car by that tire. then grab the tire at 9:00 and 3:00 and try to move it as if you're trying to steer the car.

Thanks in advance for the help: I've been having a grinding noise and a good bit of vibration coming through my steering wheel and brake pedal occasionally when I turn left. It isn't a tire rub or bottom scraping sound either, but more of a deep metal-to-metal noise that literally sounds like the front end of the truck is about to come apart.

Spent time this weekend exploring the winding roads on the North Georgia mountains just north of Atlanta and experienced the same screechy metal grinding sound a couple of times at low speed in 2nd gear.

Grinding sounds are heard all of the time and you cannot escape from them. That's why when you hear grinding sound coming from the engine bay. Open up the hood and inspect the alternator. If some sounds are coming from the alternator, it means that the alternator is broken and needs replacing.

1) Grinding noise was front dust shields that just needed to be bent back a bit. 2) Jiggling noise was "anti-rattle spring" or something similiar right on top of the caliper that popped out when I hit a couple of nasty bumps when all of this started. I simply pushed it back down and it clipped in place.

Braking at low speeds creates a different situation than braking at high speeds. When the brakes are applied at high speeds, there's a sudden change in the direction of the vehicle. At low speeds this change happens more slowly. This causes the entire car to shift on its suspension, which also changes the geometry of the suspension.

My experience with the E46 is that any creaking from the front suspension is usually due to worn control arm ball joints, requiring control arm replacement.
