What Causes Noise When Turning a Car?
1 Answers
The reasons for noise when turning a car are: 1. Plastic sound from the steering wheel: Many car steering wheels are made of plastic, which can produce friction noise during turns. In cold weather, friction between plastic components becomes more frequent; 2. Aging of the tie rod end: The tie rod end of the steering system is a frequently used component during turns. Over time, aging tie rod ends can cause steering wheel vibration and noise; 3. Sound from the shock absorber top bearing: Identifying this sound is relatively simple - open the engine hood to check if the noise originates from the shock absorber top mount position; 4. Improper tension or aging of the power steering belt: For mechanical hydraulic power steering systems, improper belt tension or aging has significant impact. If the issue is belt tension, it can be adjusted. For aged belts, replacement is necessary.
