Guest Wombat Posted October 30, 2006 Report Posted October 30, 2006 Hi Folks, My Galaxy has just started making a strange grating noise when I drive in a straight line. The noise gets slightly worse when I turn right, but completely disappears when I turn left. It's a R 2.3 Petrol Ghia X Gal. Anybody any ideas. Any help appreciated. Cheers Quote
JohnR Posted October 30, 2006 Report Posted October 30, 2006 weird....check for something rubbing on a front tyre??? Quote
Guest bigal Posted October 30, 2006 Report Posted October 30, 2006 Could be the wheel arch liner has come loose and rubbing on the tyre. Quote
Guest Wombat Posted October 30, 2006 Report Posted October 30, 2006 Thanks Folks, just checked but it's neither of these. It's more gutteral, more subtle. No subtle is the wrong word as it does get pretty loud, it's just that it took me a while to realise that it went away as I made left turns. Quote
seatkid Posted October 30, 2006 Report Posted October 30, 2006 Either a drive line component - Wheel bearing, CV Joint, Diff or it's your missus sat next to you. :blink: Quote
Guest Wombat Posted October 30, 2006 Report Posted October 30, 2006 If it was the missus it would be more of a whine. :blink: Cheers, I'll get someone to look into it. Quote
