Focus MK1.5 Knocking issue

Featured Replies

Hi

 

I have an issue when I turn a tight corner , there's a really loud / grinding noise from the passenger side wheel area.

I'm thinking wheel bearing ????

I've had it for well over a year now, passed MOT though

 

 

Thanks

 



Have you put non standard wheels or tyres on it? So that something is rubbing on full lock?

Normally if there is a grinding noise with aftermarket larger wheels the noise would be heard on full lock from both sides 👍

no just the standard alloys are on

 

Has it happened just after the MOT? They do alot of poking about, maybe loosened the wheel liner?

Yeh, I know, and you've had it over a year now, though, it's passed an MOT (sometime maybe in the distant past??) LOL
