BlackBosh Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 So I get a knocking/grinding noise on full lock when i boot it. I dont do it anymore so no longer hear it what could it be as I say its under load and near full lock when it does it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I would have a guess at the calipers pistons and pads moving as it leans to one side as a guess. Anyway when you coming back on forza been missing you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tlag Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Does it matter which way you turn on full lock, or do you only hear it in one direction? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackBosh Posted April 30, 2014 Author Share Posted April 30, 2014 Brakes are still pretty stuffed so could be, I've only noticed left but as I say i started being a bit easier on her as soon as I heard it there is every possibility it does it when turning right as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gambit Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 But back on the knocking noise might be a few things worse one being Diff related but as I said before I know if you have a bearing or bad hub can do it. but 1st place I would check is the calipers and pistons and around the brakes 1st give the wheel a wobble from all angles the side you think it's knocking 1st Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackBosh Posted May 6, 2014 Author Share Posted May 6, 2014 No knocks and replaced brakes recently, after a play today I found it happens when struggling for grip ie hard launches with a bit of turn on. The grinding noise (not so much of a knock) seems to come through the steering wheel so I'm thinking rack or diff now :( and just as I decided to keep it and sell the Astra. !Removed!

Gambit Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Best way to be sure mate get it in and on some ramps least get under it and the wheels off the ground. But I would say with some turn on the wheel and launching it will always break something sooner than later. Unless you do some upgrades to deal with that :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackBosh Posted May 10, 2014 Author Share Posted May 10, 2014 Ive stopped launching it now so hopefully I'll forget about it and it will not break haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
