wormhole

Well, a new noise has decided to appear and I'm unsure of what it is.


The other day on my way to church (yes, I do go) I took an unimproved road for about 1/2 mile (no thanks to mapquest). When I hit pavement again I started to get a scraping/grinding noise when ever I turned the wheel to the right. I get back out of church and the noise had faded away to bearly aubile until I hit the dirt road again and it once again is a little more proment. By the time I get home the noise is gone.

Today, after doing some tooling around on a newly found dirt road the noise was again aubile once I hit pavement this time and turn right the noise became more pronounced and lasted for a longer period of time before fading away.

I'm just wondering what would cause this noise. Could it be a wheel bearing? Nothing is leaking or appears to be broken underneath.

Did you pray that it go away? Or did it go away by itself?

Hmmmmm wheel bearing??? CV joint???

sometimes i like to just turn the radio up, then when it seizes/brakes it's easy to find lol. not the best of ideas. Usually when i hear noises like that i just have someone stand outside the car and listen while i drive.

Pulled the wheel off yesterday to give it once over and didn't notice anything out of the ordinary. Everything looked to be fine, ball joints look a little worn though.

Haven't heard the noise either the past few days, maybe I'll hit up a trail and see if it comes back.
