I was driving tonight and while making left turns I was hearing weird noise that was coming from the rear of my DX. Took one of the wheels off to see if something was rubbing but that wasnt it. I cant mimic the sound but it was somethin like rub.....rub.....rub.....rub. Kinda sounds like plastic or rubber rubbing together. Anyone have any suggestions on what to look for?????

 

Do you see any evidence of rubbing in your wheel wells? Can you give a more accurate pinpoint (side to side, in the trunk...)? I'll be happy to help out but I just need more information.

 

Nah checked to make sure that there was no rubbing. Nothin is slidding in the trunk. My dad seems to think it could be the CV joint. Its too dark now to check anything else cuz my broke *** doesnt have a garage. Its only when I turn 1 way and not the other. Its weird cuz it just sounds like its comin from the rear.... Im stumped

 

Sounds like maybe bushings or the CV joints, not entirely sure if I'm understanding the sound correctly though.

 

I cant explain the noise in words. Its weird. LOL. Thanks for the help. Ill try to figure it out tomorrow.

 

might have a bad tire or wheel bearing starting to show itself.

 

Im gonna inspect the cv boots tomorrow. If theyre bad im gonna replace them. If the joints themselves are screwed, do you guys think it would be easier to just buy new axels? I can get brand new ones for 60 a side. Hopefully its not a bad wheel bearing.

 

whats your setup? do you have rims, lowered? whats your offset if you have aftermarket rims?

 

my girlfriends car did this, and i thought it was possibly a bad shock, the wheel was unbalanced and was rubbing, check that too

 

Wheels were just balanced like 1000 miles ago. The car isnt lowered at all yet and has the stock 14" steelies on it. I took my dad out for a ride in it today and it did the noise for about 3 seconds and then wouldnt do it again. I was like WTF man?

Hopefully whatever it was fixed itself and wont cause problems later. Im gonna replace the CV joints and probably the axels anyway in the spring when it gets warmer so hopefully theyll last that long. Thanks for the help fellas.
