Noise from front end


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hey fellas I've got a 2006 Silvy 4wd and I just noticed a hissing/scratching? type of noise only at speed when I make right turns such as at about 25 mph or more like around my neighborhood. Not real loud or a squealing or brake pads needing changed, I know those sounds but I'm wondering if maybe this is the start of a hub going bad??? Like i said, not super loud but just barely able to hear it over the exhaust. Any input appreciated, thanks guys.

turn hard each way and as the hub is loaded and unloaded (almost no weight on it)the noise should go away if its a hub,

 

its usually a low toned thumping as a bad ball bearing hits a failed race inside but i havent heard every noise yet lol

 

good luck

So to unload it then I would need to put the front end on a jack and try turning the wheels all the way each direction and listen? Because it seems to only be when I am above about 10 or 15 mph but I am willing to give anything a shot.
