Knocking / grating when turning left under acceleration

Featured Replies

Hi I have noticed that my car is making a grating / knocking sound from what appears to be the nearside front footwell area when turning left under acceleration (wheel has reduced load). I have checked the usual CV joint and bushes etc but can see noting out of the ordinary, can anyone advise me if I have missed something?

Thanks

Graham

driveshaft?

Broken front spring?

Diff?

Got traction control? Tried switching it off?

Does the steering feel wooden/ stiff turning in this direction compared to the opposite? Might be worth double checking ball joint

I had a heat shield giving me that sort if noise.

If I remember correctly it went over the drive shaft.
