OK here is the symtoms. I have an almost rubbing, grinding sound at low speed that is speed dependant. As in it goes rub, quiet, rub, quiet, rub. The slower I go the slower the frequency of the noise. At higher speeds the noise either disappears or is a softer higher pitched squeak.

The position of the left front suspension seems influence the noise. It is louder when braking or turning right. The noise is usually gone when you are accelerating or turning left.

I'm thinking that it is a CV joint type problem but I'm not the most knowledgable mechcanic out there.

Thanks in advance for the help

 

Sounds like your brake dust shield is rubbing.

 

That would be too easy I'll take a look at it.

 

Yep, I have a Yella arrr. Why? Do you know Fuquay?

 

I would check the hub bearing out also.

 

rotor?

 

grease your bushings

 

sounds like a borderline wheel bearing or slightly warped rotor to me.
