Grinding noise when I turn right???
Hi, i'm new in this forum. I have a 00 civic si and when I turn right it makes a grinding noise from behind the drivers side(where the back passengers foot would rest). It sounds like CV joints grinding but I checked that out and the boots seemed to be fine. I look under the car and there's nothing there that can possibly grind. Honda told me it was my rear rotors, so I changed it and the sound stills there. Any help would be good

how big are your rims and tires? might be a problem if you put like 18 in rims..i think thats the biggest it can go for a civic though. anything happen when you tap brakes?

are you sure it's coming from behind your drivers seat??? and if it's when you're turning, then it's not your brakes...you would only hear your brakes of course when you brake. And it's only when you turn right?

My car is totally stock, including rims and tires. As for the brakes, that's what honda told me so I switched out the rotors and pads and the sounds still there.

Check your lower ball joints. I have the same problem in my hatch, where the lower ball joint makes contact with the front rotor every time I make a tight right turn. I'm replacing all my bushings with hyperflex to see if that cures the problem.

But the sounds not coming from the front. It's coming from the back. I know how bad cv joints sound because my wifes kia has F'd up cv joints. Any other thoughts???
