Front RT Side Noise
I'm hearing what sounds like a scraping type sound coming from the right front wheel area. I jacked the car up this morning and took the wheel off. Lifted the caliper, brake pads were fine. Pads and rotors are only a year old and show no wear after about 8k miles of driving. These are the Frozen rotors and Akebono pads. I must say the combo is working great.
Back to my problem. the only time i hear this noise is while the car is turning right. If driving straight or turning left no scraping noise is heard. While up on the jack i turned the wheels all the way to the right but could not hear anything unusual. So i can only hear it when the car is running and in a right turn. I did notice that while hearing the noise while in drive if i stopped the car and kept the wheel in the same position i would not hear the noise in reverse. So that doesn't makes since to me. Why do i hear it driving forward but with the wheel in the same position no noise is heard while in reverse or turning it the opposite direction no noise is heard while in reverse. I hope i explained this good enough for someone to give me an idea of what's going on. It just started about a week ago. Suppose to be going to the Reading Meet this Saturday........
