Hi

Noticed today when going up a carpark that when I turn hard lock to the left there is a grinding/tapping noise from the front of the car. I thought it might be a ball joint or wheel bearing? any other ideas?

 

most likely to be your cv boot

If your car is lowered or if you have plus-sized rims and tires you're probably rubbing at full lock. If not, it's either a CV joint (axle...it's easier to replace and just as expensive) or a thrashed wheel bearing.

 

thx for the responses.

Ill get the guys to check the whole lot out.

Btw, its running on 16's, 45 profile, and dropped 35mm on ITR shocks.

Thanks for the help
