Sign In 2007 Ford Fusion 2.3L on the front right side my wheel is making a sound just like a bad wheel bearing the weird thing is that it's only when I make a right hand turn. which makes me think ist not the bearing at all. I've had bad bearings before on other vehicles and the noise is normally consistent wether you are driving straight or turning. Could it be the drive axle bearing? nickwarner Veteran / Moderator May 8, 2010, 12:11 PM Post #2 of 7 (2476 views) Re: bad bearing or drive axle? Sign In when you hear the noise in the right turn, does it come from the left or right side?

It gets louder when you transfer weight on to it by turning and goes away when you unload weight. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional. michgad New User May 8, 2010, 12:50 PM Post #4 of 7 (2468 views) Re: bad bearing or drive axle? Sign In the sound is only there when I make a right turn, and its on the right side. going straight and left turns are fine Hammer Time Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator May 8, 2010, 12:53 PM Post #5 of 7 (2464 views) Re: bad bearing or drive axle? Sign In Double check that the brake backing plates have sufficient clearance from the rotor. If it's too close the slightest lean of the rotor will make it contact the backing plate. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional. michgad New User May 9, 2010, 7:22 AM Post #6 of 7 (2444 views) Re: bad bearing or drive axle?
