My 2013 R has 1770 miles and I just noticed a strange new sound when I turn at really low speed (parking speed) on steering full-lock. The sound is hard to describe, but it starts as low frequency hiss (such as someone exhaling) and then slight rattles from suspension. Power steering? I owned a 2012 Golf GTI for 8 months, and never heard before, so this is new...
View 8 RepliesSo yet I found out about another common issue but not that publicized. This is the grinding sound when turning at full lock (left or right) in slow speed. I've read several people in the forum who has encountered this. I read different remedies but the most common one is to have the CV boots lubricated.
I have a 2014 Wolfsburg with almost 5k miles. I am really now worrying about my water pump crapping out on me but I heard this grinding sound yesterday.
When I turn the wheels to full lock, either right or left, I hear a clunking sound. Usually pulling into parking spots, into the driveway, etc.....but only going forward, not in reverse. Where do I start?
View 9 RepliesI have a problem with my VW Touareg 05 plate. When I turn the steering wheel full lock left or right in tight places the car shudders. It doesn't do it all the time but does appear to be getting worse as time goes on. I have been told that it may well be the Stepper motor.
View 9 RepliesI have a dragging/scraping noise (almost like static or some type of friction) that happens when the wheel is anywhere from ~80% to full lock on either side. At first I thought it was wheel rub (have stock wheels and tires), but there was no evidence of that. Dealer checked the noise and said it was "normal".
2015 GTI S PP with 6 Speed, DCC, LP, and DAP.
Ive got a good video of this noise and u cant miss it! [URL] ....
This happen what I full lock, or almost, the steering wheel to right, u will see on the video, I even show that it don't do it on the other side.
What the hell this can be ?? im on 16'' winter tires, so its not the tires that rubs.
I have installed the Whileline w.a.l.k. and the Tyrol subframe collars 2 months ago so, I doubt it is the subframe?
Possible bad CV joint? but I heard its more kind of clicking noise that this horrible rub.
Possible front-brakes worn?
What else should I take a look ??
What to hunt down if there is a creaking sound when the car is parked and turning full lock left and right? Sounds almost like the brakes are locked but slipping slightly but I don't have my foot on the brake.
View 7 RepliesThis is for a mk6 GTI w/ ~3500 miles ... Having problem where the front end of the car is making a clicking/clacking noise with the steering wheel cranked full left or right? The noise isn't there (i think) when making a normal turn. No noise either when car is stationary when I crank full left/right. Are the CV joints dying? I find it hard to believe that both sides are dying and with such low mileage...

View 1 RepliesAfter 12,000 kms of trouble free motoring on my replacement Treg (first one a lemon) it seems to have developed an unusual problem. The best I can describe this prob is that when I go into almost full turning lock (obviously at snail pace speed) the car shudders quite noticeably. The problem occurs intermittently however as of late at least on 50% of occasions. Seems to be worse after reversing uphill a short distance.
View 24 RepliesI have an 02 Elantra GT. I was dropping off a friend who knows cars and went to turn around, turned the wheel to full lock to make the turn and heard a squeal. I asked my friend what it was and he said it was the P/S and I just needed to add some P/S fluid. I got some fluid and sure enough when I went to fill up the reservoir it was below to MIN line, not too much below but still below it. I filled up the fluid and didn't hear the problem for the rest of the day but this morning I heard the same noise when I was leaving for work. I figured the fluid had to work its way though but am not sure if there is something else I should check or do.
View 3 RepliesWhere the power steering reservoir is located on an ES 350 (2013)? I am looking to change the fluid out since my steering wheel is making some noise at full lock. I have been looking under the hood for 2 days now and cannot seem to locate it. I have located the brake fluid reservoir which was flushed out today...night and day difference in braking btw. Now this power steering is bugging me but i cant locate the reservoir.
View 8 RepliesI have just purchased a 2008 Santa Fe Limited and there is a problem with the steering. At slow speed, particularly in reverse when performing a full-lock turn, the power delivery is jerky and the vehicles jumps a bit.
It feels like either the AWD system is binding or the CV joints are operating beyond their limits. I have ready other posts that this is a known problem - the dealer I bought it from said the same, that it is known and seems to be accepted by Hyundai, there seems to be no recall on this and apparently this doesn't happen in post 20009 models when they face-lifted and supposedly changed the steering lock limits.
I'd like to understand more what is happening, see if there is a solution that I can implement, or alternatively if I have to just accept this, then it would be good to get reassurance that what I am feeling is not going to damage something further down the line.
I have a '16 F250 4wd with the 6.7 and approx 3k miles. There has been a strange sound coming from the front end when turning left from a stoplight. It sounds like something slides or shifts and it only happens once in a while. The noise isn't loud but you can feel it.
View 2 RepliesJust like the tittle says. My 2011 ISF with 56k miles on it is making a Clunking noise when pulling out of a parking spot or just anytime I fully steer to the left side and begin to move. If I try it in reverse it doesn't matter if I turn the steering wheel fully to left or right it makes the same noise as I begin to move at slow speed. It almost feels like something is pushing the front wheels out. During normal driving I don't feel anything at all, just as steady as solid the car can be.
Is there any common issues with ISF with premature wear of ball joints, cv joint, sway bar bushings or hub bearing?
its possible to repair? or only a new one it's the solution? cause my gti 1.8t it's making a sound like tssshhh when i turn the steering wheel. I change the power steering rack.
View 2 RepliesWhen I turn my car off, I hear some rattling. Took it to the dealership many times. They hear it but can't pinpoint the problem. Had a VW specialist sent in. He took a look and saw the VF motor mounts and said" He hears it too but the mounts could be the cause". The head mechanic and service guy told me if I could figure out the noise they would still fix it under warranty.
View 11 RepliesThis is kind of an odd ball problem since I have not encountered this before, but every time I turn my wheels full left or full right and start moving a really high pitched squeaking sound comes from the front of the car. Is it bad alignment or wear sensors on the brake pads rubbing? the brakes have a lot of pad left so i find that hard to believe.
View 5 RepliesSo here I am at just under 500 miles on the odometer, and I'm beginning to notice a strange rattle sound when driving. This rattle occurs either after I let off the throttle in any gear, or when the RPMs are dropping from 2500 - 1000. It happens only for a short moment and it almost sounds like something tapping a few times somewhere on the axle or drivetrain. I first actually noticed it when my music was turned up because I could feel the vibration in the steering wheel. Anyways, I have a call out to the service department to have it looked at ASAP.
View 1 RepliesToday I should make trade for MKIV R32 and I only thing I'm bit worried is this one sound. It appears when speed is over 40 mph/60 kmh. And especially then when I set my gas pedal loose / idle. The sound seems to be coming from back and it reminds the sound when you leave your window just little open and wind blows in making very similar sound. It is high frequency sound and not loud but still can clearly be heard. Almost like whistling type of sound. Then when speed decreases below 40 mph the sound disappears.
The car has milltek resonated exhaust.
Only thing I could think of is that if there could be some hole in exhaust pipe or in window caulk/seal..
So my rpm bounces at idle and there is a strange whining sound which seems to be in unison with the peak of the rpm bounce.. and it all stops when the heat or a/c is off.
