Hi. I have a 99 Civic LX and when I give I place my foot on the gas I hear a rubbing noise coming from the passenger's side at the front. I have a manual tranny. When I put the car in first gear and let out the clutch I don't hear the rubbing noise but as soon as I give it some gas I can hear the noise. Similarly, when I switch to second gear and I let out the clutch I don't hear the noise but as soon as I give it some gas I can hear the noise. Also, I can hear the noise more often when it's cold outside. Especially in the morning when I start up my car I can hear the noise, it's cold outside now in winter. The noise goes away in 3rd gear, 4th, and 5th gear. What is the problem?

 

bump

 

nosie coming from the axles? Wheel Bearings? Tranny? does it also make this noise when u turn or is it always there?

 

I don't know where the noise is coming from. It seems to come at random times but it usually comes on in first gear when I accelerate and 2nd gear when I accelerate. I can also hear the rubbing sound in the morning when it's cold outside. It doesn't make the noise when I turn.
