Thread: grinding noise

I would be checking bearings and brakes and if it only happens when cornering then a possible split CV boot letting crud into the CV.

hi.i jacked up the wheel and there is no movement ,the pads have lots of meat on them,maybe the cv joint,thanks for the suggestion.

i have checked the cv joints and the wheel bearing,my thoughts are that a brake caliper pistion was sticking causing the brake to apply intermittently when under load,ie,turning and braking while turning right.

That wouldnt make a grinding noise unless your pads are down to metal or they are a hard metallic compound.

Had a similar issue on a D2 a few months back. Only turning right, worse under power from take off. Thought it was cv/bearing right front wheel due to turning symptom. Turned out to be right rear disc binding- the slide pins were stuck with old grease, so the pads weren't releasing properly. New discs and a caliper service/grease and all was right in the world.

Check between the backing plate and disc rotor for gravel / rock etc
