Can't hear you over the grinding	Sign In

I have a 1996 Plymouth Breeze, 2.0, with 225000 mi. I have had this car for almost nine years and done most of the repair work myself. I have heard a lot of different noises come from this car, but this one is new and I am at a loss. I am getting a really bad grinding noise when I turn left. This is no squeak, pop, or thunk. (delt with them before) In the past week the passenger side has had the half shaft (cv joints) lower control arm (w\ball joint) and hub assembly replaced. The brakes look good and so do the rotors. I have checked and rechecked that everything is back where it should be and the right torque specs are being used. Help please.

Bearings new or not can fail making noise frequently aggravated on turns at first. They don't necessarily show free play at the first noises either. Also know that noises like that can defy your senses and be from the opposite side so check both sides,

Re: Can't hear you over the grinding	Sign In

Many wheel bearings require torquing to a preload specification which is usually higher than the regular torque spec. The axle nut is torqued to preload, backed off, then retorqued to the regular spec. If this step is required, but skipped, accelerated bearing wear will result. Also, it's unlikely, but check for any signs of the tires rubbing against the inner wheel well when turning left
