Tyre scrubbing noise
« on: 08 March 2011, 16:11:41 »
 When driving down the road at 20mph or higher, I turn the wheel left & there is a loud scrubbing noise coming from the drivers front wheel :(
I done the wish bones/ droplinks/ rear springs/ steering idler & a trip to WIM about 10k ago & had 4 new uniryal tyres fitted back in nov
what is wrong with the suspension now!!!????
spent more on suspension work than I paid for the car :(

Hopefully only something like the inner arch plastic panel come astray?

Otherwise, if you fit ebay special wishbones and/or did them up with the wheels not level, then sadly they could already be borked after 10k :(

Think it might be the metal brake disc shield, have bent it away a bit.
All the parts were GM fitted by a mechanic so should be ok ::)
