Grinding noise
Hi everyone,
I know a lot of you are more technical than I am. I'm having a grinding noise from my front driver's side wheel. It started happening on left turns, but now it primarily happens on right turns even without braking. I have 47,000 on my '05.
My first thought is brake pads, but I would think that would make noise all the time, not just on turns. From searching other forums on here it sounds like it may be a wheel bearing too. I pulled the wheel and took a look, and I think the inner brake pad is low. I'm going to change those this weekend, but my question is:
Does this sound like brake pads or a wheel bearing, or should I be checking something else?
Thanks,
Greg

It happened to me. Got new brakes and the noise went away...
Mine was coming from the right front wheel. Every time I made a turn
I would hear the grinding noise. Eventually it would do it all the time, not just on turns.
