Tire wear, strange sounds when turning right
Just when I thought I had most of the problems resolved on my car, I run into another issue :(
Ok so when I turn left (weight being distributed to the right of the car) it turns great, no problems. When I turn right (weight being distributed to the left drivers side of the car) it makes a creeeking sound, like a shock going bad. If I get out and push down on the car I can not re create the sound. In addition, all of my tires have very good tread left on them except the rear left tire, which has good tread except the OUTSIDE edge. I was thinking maybe when I made turns, the wheel was hitting the fender and wearing just the edge down. Does anyone have an idea of what this could possibly be? Thanks for your suggestions in advance! |
Bumpity bumb......
Nobody has seen anything like this before? |
I have something like this, but it is in the front
When I make the same turn. If I turn with "gusto" I get this warbling "wonka wonka wonka" sound from my drivers side front wheel, and on that tire, the outside edge is worn badly.
Sorry no solution, just another problem Mark |
fender
There is a lot of clearance in that wheel well. Unless you are running a very odd wheel/tire combo, I can't imagine it's making contact.
My thought is get the car on a rack and get a mechanic to push, prod, pry everything on the front suspension to see if anything is worn (upper arms, ball joints, tir rods, lower control arms, idle arm, guide rods, wheel bearings...). I'd have them turn the wheel lock to lock and see if if the can find the problem. |
Its not the front, its the rear. And ya today I did hear a sound that sounded like the tire hitting the wheel well. Does this sound like a possible bad shock?

Check the rear wheel bearings, the CV joints, diff mounts, and there are bushings to check back there as well, but I cant remember the names...
