Turn Squeak

[sprinter119]

Lately my car makes a squeaking noise when i turn the wheel and sometimes while im just rolling slowly. My belts are tight my next thought would be my endlinks are making noises. The car has been lowered for about 60000 miles on Teins with stock components. The squeak is like something is rusty would be the best way to explain. Thoughts?

maybe top plate , coils.

go to your mechanic, this is the best solution.

Wow i have the same problem. its every now and then. It sounds like a sqeaky door or a squeaky spring in a bed. How bad is this problem?

EDIT: Car has stock suspension. Nothing modded

it'll get worse as time goes on. it's a bearing. i had the exact same noise, replaced bearings, all fixed!

Ok since i'm still a moron on mechanics, where are the bearings located?

bearings are located in the knuckle. the knuckle is what your wheel mounts to.

I think i have the same problem. I thought it could also be my calipers that are jammed or stg. And i know its comming from the back but im not sure if which wheel or if the front ones do that too...

easiest way to check front bearings, jack up the front of the car, wiggle the tire left and right, up and down.. if the bearings are bad, you will know it. there'll be excessive play in them.

Bump

Question.

I was looking for the part on rockauto.com and i am not quite sure what i have to buy. The sound got worse and tonight i was rolling at around 5-10mph and it was LOUD like a non-oiled door hinge. Am i suppost to buy the Knuckle Support?

This is the stock knuckle support # 45K18035

This is and aftermarket Knuckle support # 45K18047

Any help would be appreciated

just buy the bearing..and if it's making a grinding kinda noise, that means it's basicallly done.

I hope not i have a lightweight pulley on it but that shouldnt affect the pump

 

[P-Funk!]

Or is it the steering column (thye joints under the hood? WD-40 'em see if that fixes it... (if the bearings checked good)
