Whenever I drive the car, it’s making a noise like two rusted metal
rubbing together for about 2 seconds everytime the wheel spins. The
symptom would be more noticeable during the morning drive or whenever
I turned the steering wheel. The dealer indicates that it’s just glaze
on the rotors and that I should break a little harder to remove it. I
doubt that this is the case since you could hear it even when I don’t
step on the brake. I went to an independent shop and they couldn’t
figure out what’s wrong with it since they can’t isolate the noise as
to which side of the wheel it’s coming from. They noticed that if they
put it on a rack and make the wheel spin it will not make any noise at
all but only if it’s on the ground where there is weight on the tires.
They suspected that it’s either the tire or bearing but not knowing
which side it is they were not willing to take a chance to make any
repair, Is there any other way to isolate the problem or know what the
problem is? :cry:
