mrobinson2 Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 The Zed has developed a strange noise that seems to be coming from the front passenger side wheel. The noise is best described as the same noise you get when your exhaust's heat shield is loose if that makes sense. It only makes this noise when the car is on at least half lock when turning left. Anyone got any ideas what it might be? Its a very disconcerting noise to have coming from that area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a look at the rotor dirt shields or inner arch liners:thumbs: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabbitstew Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Alex is right. Ive had the same problem on other cars and it tends to be the shield which goes behind the brake disc. Sometimes it can get bent a bit and catch on the brake disc. Usually only happens if your turning in one direction. I just bent it back from the disc slightly and it fixed it.
