It is coming from the front, has been slowly getting louder for a very long time now. It exactly matches the rotation speed of my wheels. I have had a mechanic look at my car a couple of times with this noise, with no luck. A recent addition, which may or may not be related is that I hear a low grinding sound when I break at idle speeds. Also If I turn my wheel sharply while turning, I get a jiggling in the steering wheel, and It feels like I am losing power. I would like to get an opinion or two before I take it in anywhere, as I have been duped for repairs I didn't need before, which is why I am here. Hopefully I have attached the mp3 file correctly with the sound recording.

It will have to be isolated down. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 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.

Inspect & rotate the tires, if the noise moves to the rear it's a tire problem. While driving steer the car side to side (just use care doing this test so you don't wind explaining to a cop that you really aren't drunk) . If the noise gets louder on the turns you have a bearing problem. If it gets louder while going to the left, then the right bearing is bad and visa versa.   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
