Left Rear Wheel noise when taking a slight right turn?
I have a noise coming from my back of my Ford Focus, ( woo woo woo ) for a while now, it's driving me crazy, I can only hear it when I'm in second or third gear when turning slightly to the right, also i just realized that when in star moving or my car is reversing for a second or two I can hear a squeeking noise.
I lifted the car and checked the wheel and is moving freely with no noise whatsoever, it looked ok.
I kind of run out of ideas can anyone give any suggestions please!
1 Are the wheel nuts tight.
2 But take the wheel off anyway and check the inside wall of the tyre it may be damadged.
3 If OK remove the rear drum brake and check if the brake pads are worn if so replace, also remove an dust
you see in the drum.
Sounds like maybe you have a wheel bearing starting to fail.
May be as simple as dust in the brake drum, or could be a damaged bearing.
The tire could be out of round or out of alignment. Take it to a tire shop and have them check it out.
Check to see if your tires have small ribbing right up to the bead seal on the rim. The tires with the small ribbing are known to make a noise called tire scrunge. Make sure you have the right amount of air in the tires. I've had some luck with spraying the tire to rim bead down with silicon spray or WD-40.
Sounds like
- 1995 Ford Taurus with a steering issue. When I turn the steering wheel to a certain spot left or right it will start moving back and forth? According to previous owner the rack and pinion was previously replaced. Steering wheel Is off a little to the right. Any ideas?
- My car is making noise when I turn the wheel, what could be causing it? I put power steering fluid in and double checked it to make sure it was full, which it is. But whenever I turn the wheel it still makes a terrible noise, i almost want to not drive it anymore just because of that noise. Anyone have an idea what it could be? Is it the power steering pump maybe? If it helps, my car is a 2001 Ford Mustang, FWD. The noise is coming from the front of the car.
- Grinding noise when I turn right? I have a 2011 Ford Fusion and recently when I turn right I hear grinding noise. It's very similar to the sound in the YouTube video. Any idea? I checked the backplate of the rotors they re fine. Sound is coming from the back.
- Screeching noise from front left wheel on a 2013 Ford Focus SE - what is it? Cars got 30k miles on it. Its still has 6k miles until factory comprehensive coverage ends so I'm not persay worried, but I would like to fix this problem myself if its a simple fix and not expensive rather than take it to the dealership. I ain't got much experience with cars so I want to expand my skillset. Here is a youtube video for the noise. Sorry for the wind, its very windy today in Colorado.
