so
- i checked the wheel bearings, they're OK - i checked the calipers for sticky pistons, they're OK - i checked for tire rubbing, they're NOT i'm at a loss. when i drive, even slowly, no noise at all. but as soon as i have the wheels in full lock to the right, i hear a noise from the drivers side front that very much sounds like a sticky brake piston making the pads rub on the rotor. only on full lock (like getting in/out of a parking space) as soon as i straighten out the wheels just a bit, it goes away. why would a brake pad hit the rotor only on full lock ???

Maybe you've got a wheel rubbing on the strut?
The sound you are hearing couldn't be a brake pad... Similar yes (metal on metal grinding?). Check for abrasive wear on your swaybar parts, the strut... Can't recall if you've got front coil-overs or not... |
