Markus5000 Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 Hi all. Bit of a lengthy post but please bear with me. I've been getting an odd noise when I turn left hard. Its like a staccato noise that disappears once I've straightened up. I've jacked up the front end and done the usual wiggling of front wheel to see if there's bearing play but there's none. I've been looking at some YouTube vids of abs ring probs and going by the staccato noise, when under load, I'm wondering if the abs sensor is contacting the ring. Now presumably this would only happened if there was excessive play in something that stops horizontal motion. Any ideas? Ta all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 Is it not something simple like trim rubbing on full lock? granted a different car, but my air ducts came loose and I got a horrible noise on full lock Markus5000 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markus5000 Posted September 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 Thanks for looking sam. I don't think its rubbing, had a look and no evidence of this. Only seems to happen when under power in the turn. So only when under load. I tried to get it to do it when driving it with Jo (triggerfish) but sods law, wouldn't do it lol. It seems easier to make the noise now so whatever it is, its got worse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a similar problem when turning left sometimes before.. Turned out to be the lower arm ball joint! Just a thought pal!

Its not so much a creak but like I've driven on a rumble strip until I straighten the wheel again :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
