What Causes the Noise at the Wheels When Turning the Steering Wheel in Place?

[DeJoshua]

The reasons for noise at the wheels when turning the steering wheel in place: Noise from the shock absorber plane bearing: If you hear a clicking sound when gently shaking the steering wheel in place, it is likely due to insufficient lubrication in the shock absorber's plane bearing. You can confirm this by opening the hood and checking if the noise is coming from the top seat of the shock absorber. Noise from the stabilizer bar: If the noise is not from the shock absorber, then you should check whether the stabilizer bar bushing is loose or damaged. A loose or damaged stabilizer bar bushing can cause noise not only when turning the steering wheel but also when driving on uneven roads.
