Whining Sound when turning..

[BlueWolfCry]

Only happens when turning right. And happens on or off throttle. It's REALLY annoying and pretty noticeable. If I zig zag the car, it goes on and off, on and off...what could it be? Bearings? I have no idea...

Also, not related to only MSPs, but the screw holes that hold the bumpers up are rusting. What should I use to get rid of it? I imagine spray painting the holes would be useless since the screw would just rip the paint off again. Thanks for the input.

If it changes pitch when you turn left and right its most likely a wheel bearing.

Just had my drivers side replaced for $250 at the dealership.

So after, no pitch changes? Problem fixed?

The sound is gone completely.

Of the $250, it was almost 50:50 labor vs parts. (Everything is more expensive in Canada)

To install a bearing you will need to press them, so I figured I would just pay to have it done. There is a very good how to by a forum member.

Mazda dealer charged $250 for wheel bearing? Bastard stealership here charges $310, lol.

yeah i had that problem a while ago, i think for me it was 350-400 for the fronts to be replaced. And if 250 seems like alot of $$$$ trust me, its nothing on these cars.
