I've been chasing what sounds like wheel bearing grinding/scoring sound. I'm hearing it when making somewhat hard left hand turns (such as left hand on/off ramps).To me it sounds like the noise is coming from the right hand side of the car.
Already I've replaced the right hand side rear wheel bearing(IRS CAR)...noise was still there. Today I replaced the right side front wheel bearing hub asembly. The noise is still there. I've checked all the brake linings and there is plenty left.
There is no noise at any other time. I've taken the car to parking lots and ran left hand donuts to generate the sound. When I do this, the noise will be more prominent during easier left hand turns for a while after this maneuver. Normally it only appears when the car shifts weight to the right side for while.
I'm curious if anyone has chased a noise like this where the noise appears to be coming from the right side of the car and later found it to be a left hand side bearing? I'm justifying money spent with no success by telling myself the new parts are due since the car is in the 200k mile club.
By the way the car is a 1989 780 Bertone. It does have a V8 and 5 speed, but that shouldn't matter...I think...........
