Chancho Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 So i replaced the front struts this morning with sensatracs and the ride is awsome, it appears that the origional struts were on the car (145k miles WOW) the drivers strut had no upward force, it was bad anyway i was driving home and i hear like a metal grinding noise, it happens when i turn left, not strait or right, and only on the drivers side, so it makes the noise when there is no weight or force on that side of the car if you get what im saying any help would be appriciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWeb80 Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 Strange. You Tighten Everything Down? Is This Noise At Speed Or Sitting Still? Might Want To Clarify That. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chancho Posted November 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 noise occurs while driving, its not very loud so only when im driving slow, and only after the car is hot i was just down under the car and checked out the drivers side, the cv boots look good no cracks or visible damage, i dont know what it could be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
