Default weird sound..

please help!!


so my car has just started making a weird noise when in gear and in neutral rolling. it sounds like my caliper is grinding against the inside of my rim but thats not it. tighted all my lugs. still makes a grinding noise. it also slightly vibrates my car but not bad. at a slow pace it will make a slower noise but faster it will make faster noise. im not sure if its grinding or rubbing against something. also my friend told me that my right wheeel shakes when driving. let me know it will help alot!!

thanks!

check the brake backing plate on the inside of the hub next to the rotor, it could be rubbing on it making that noise. what speed exactly does the shake at? 0-30 bent wheel/shifted belt, 30-up out of ballance wheel. or if you accelerate and it shakes most likely out of ballance front wheel(s)

0-30 the sound gets more faster the wheel rotates. sounds like somthing is bent cuz itll be like........'grind'...........'grind'.........'gri nd'......... at a slow speed, if i speed it up to about 25-30 itll be like 'grind'.'grind'.'grind' and so on. one of my friends said my bearing might be out. =o

hmmm i dunno if i'd jump to that conclusion yet. like the other guy said check your brake dust shield and see if its rubbing against the back of your rotor. could also be a hung up brake pad or caliper.

I was thinking wheel bearing as well. One way to check if they're bad is to jack the front end up and try to move the tires up and down. If they move a lot, it could be a bad bearing.

Sounds like dust shield or your pads are fried. Check the wheel bearing just in case

my friend also said it could be a bearing also.. cuz when im just rolling, it will grind at like a certain point of the rotation then again.

Check your brake pads, They have special tabs on them, that will make that noise to let you know there low/need replacing.
