Car "moans"/vibrates when I turn - any ideas???
Wednesday, February 28, 2007 3:20 PM
Hey,
First off, if this needs to be moved to maintenance, mods please move it.

This past week I've been taking carners kinda fast, sometimes with brake and sometimes without. Just a little spirited driving.
Anyways, usually after doing that, especially if I brake at the same time, I'll get this "moan" when I turn and a vibration I can feel in the pedal (sometimes I will feel it for a little while too if I make a u-turn). Usually it goes away by the next day.
However, this time it hasn't gone away in like 3 days.

Anyone have any idea what it could be??? I was thinkin maybe the brake wasn't going back to the position it should be at or something.

Summary - Turn fast, sometimes with brake (sometimes just taking a u-turn) then get moaning noise and vibration I can feel thru the pedal when I turn, what is it?

Thanks for any help.

-Seth

Could be alot of things. Does the car pull on straights in any direction?
Check your tires and see if they are wearing bad. Could be worn ball joints. Bad hub bearing.
I would take it in if you can't figure it out and get it looked at before it causes an accident.

does it only happen when you turn one way? i would jack the car up and look for something broke i would probably put the car on jacks and spin the wheel to see whats making noise. my friends car made a vibration and noise when he turned it was his anti roll bar. it had snapped and was hitting something that spun when he would turn

No pulling. Goes perfectly straight.

I might see if I can try that. I dont have any jacks less a place to use them so i'll have to see what i can come up with.

i think i have a leak somewhere because i have to refill it like everymonth, but when it needs it, it makes weird moaning noise when i turn and it also viberates a little.

Power Stearing Pump...Mine does the same thing and I can hear it work hard when i turn to one side. Its worse when i turn left. I did all the checks but the step bar. Will check that tonight.

sound like abs to me? since you said it does it when your cornering and braking at the same time. . My car does it all the time when i hit the brakes hard and turn, also i have fairly new tires.
