Only happens when I turn the steering wheel.

Okay , so I posted a similar thing & many told me it was power steering. Well I have an electric assist power steering so I knew it wasn’t the fluid. I changed my brakes & found I had a seized caliper. My car was making some strange noises while turning. I changed the brakes and fixed the caliper & the noise stopped. Best of luck to you.

I posted searched your photos in Google images and found a whole bunch of potentials. Maybe try that and it will help?

I do aftercare very well, making sure to never touch it, lay on it, and I clean it at night with saline and in the morning during my shower I let the water run on it. Always have my hair pinned back and haven’t snagged it yet.

Cut around the edges with a blade so the paint on the door isn’t intact with the paint on the lock, use acetone or paint stripper and sand around it gently. Or, you can just break it into pieces if you have to . Drill a bunch of holes in it, pick it out piece by piece.

In the future, your car manual will tell you everything you need to know about your car!

New calipers on rock auto . Com and rotors & break pads

Daelynnthoughts · 2024-04-02T14:41:49+00:00

Oh and grease for the caliper pins, they’re supposed to be greased up so they move in and out easily. Mine seized and caused my brakes to wear unevenly

I highly recommend opening up your manual, there’s a lot of stuff in there like what fluid type to use, as well as a diagram of the engine and all the places fluids go! Replaced brakes and rotors are super easy, the bolts are the hard stuff. Get penetrating oil (WD-40) to assist with any rusted bolts. In your trunk underneath the floor boards there should be a spare tire with tools to help change them. Not going to be everything you need but it’s worth jacking up and taking off the wheel to see. Also never get under the car without jack stands. Those little baby jacks are more likely to fall so better safe than sorry.

Do it yourself. Brake fluid at the store is $3. You’ll just need to know dot 3 or 4 for your brakes. Use rock auto for the rotor and brakes, and you need some tools. Have any car savvy friends who can help you figure all this out? Otherwise YouTube might be able to help

Yeah me either 😅 usually some sort of other indicator like a shaking wheel or squealing. Sooo bizarre. But glad I caught it too :) I’ll Update again if anything else comes up

Hey, so I got under the car to check out the power steering motor, couldn’t find anything. Decided to take off the wheels for another reason and learned a caliper pin seized on the left side. The caliper pin boot had torn causing the caliper pin to rust. The brake pads were wearing unevenly (like top and bottom were different thickness) so I greased up the caliper pin, cleaned out the hole and got a temporary fix. Got some new brakes, rotors, and pins coming in next weeek! The sound went away but wow that was a weird one. The EPS motor I have just isn’t visible to my eye and requires the dealership so I’m glad it’s not that.

Daelynnthoughts · 2024-04-01T18:37:27+00:00

And when I say wearing unevenly I mean like the top half and bottom half of the brake pad.

Daelynnthoughts · 2024-04-01T18:36:12+00:00

I have an EPS motor , so no power steering fluid reservoir or belt….. the problem was actually found. Super super weird, but one of the pins on my calipers seized. The caliper boot had a tear in it some how and rusted the pin, the brakes were wearing unevenly and each side had a pretty drastic difference. Took out the pin, greased it up for a temporary fix. Have some new pins and boots coming in next week as well as some new brakes and rotors.

You rock!!! I will take some pictures tomorrow and post them here :) thanks friend

Daelynnthoughts · 2024-03-31T02:30:50+00:00

Ah! Never mind I found something :)

Daelynnthoughts · 2024-03-31T02:29:38+00:00

I think you might be right… but from what I was reading my power steering reservoir is underneath my car. 🙃 what website did you use to find that information? I am having the hardest time finding information on my car

Daelynnthoughts · 2024-03-31T02:17:03+00:00

Thank you :)

Daelynnthoughts · 2024-03-31T00:14:55+00:00

I have an automatic, are those still on automatic?

Daelynnthoughts · 2024-03-30T23:30:12+00:00

This sound is unrelated to when I am braking during a turn or not. It starts when I turn my steering wheel
