Hello everyone,

I started to hear like a grinding noise at times in the front right wheel. Can someone tell me what the noise might be? One thing I notice was low on power steering. Thank you.

 

A little more info would be helpful. Jack up the right front and try to spin the tire. See if there is any play when moving it up and down or side to side. Take the tire off and look around a little bit. Under what conditions do you hear the grinding? braking, accelerating, turning, ect.

 

actually i hear the noise when i turn the steering wheel. maybe that helps a little more

 

Turning sound usually is a front wheel bearing

 

Agreed.

 

Definitely a Power Steering issue. Fill up your reservoir and see if that fixes the problem.

Also, is it when your car is stationary, or moving? If you could take a video of the car in action while producing the sound I'm sure we can pinpoint your problem.

 

Does your air conditioning work? Is it only at low rpms? When's the last time you changed your brake pads?

 

I agree, usually a grinding or ticking noise.

 

I had a noise about 3 weeks ago. I was low on power steering fluid. Topped it and fixed.

 

what kind of noise did you hear
