Lavida makes noise when turning right for the following reasons: Piston material issue: The engine oil is incompatible with the piston material, causing wear and tear. It is necessary to replace the piston with an improved one. Improper use or overdue replacement of engine oil: Failure to replace the engine oil regularly will affect the normal operation of the engine. The correct engine oil model must be selected, as different friction coefficients also affect engine operation. Engine oil serves to lubricate and reduce friction, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and dampen vibrations. Aging or loosening of fasteners: Aging of the engine mounting rubber pads can cause the engine to vibrate and produce noise at high speeds.

With decades of car repair experience, I can say that the abnormal noise when turning right in a Lavida is usually related to worn steering components. The most common cause is a torn outer CV joint boot on the driveshaft, where the grease leaks out, causing metal-to-metal friction and a clicking sound during turns—especially noticeable during right turns under heavy load. Another possibility is aging or loose suspension arm bushings, which may produce a squeaking noise during sharp turns. I recommend lifting the chassis to check for cracks or grease stains on the CV joint boot. If caught early, replacing the boot and regreasing costs just around a hundred bucks, but delaying it could mean replacing the entire driveshaft for thousands. A damaged right wheel bearing might also produce a humming noise during turns—try shaking the wheel by hand to check for looseness. Regular maintenance with ample grease to prevent dry friction and driving slowly on gravel roads to reduce impacts can help. These issues aren’t hard to fix, but neglecting them could lead to major repairs.

I've been driving my Lavida for almost five years, and suddenly there was a rattling sound when turning right, which really worried me. Last time I went for a check-up, it turned out to be due to wear on the steering half-shaft CV joint. The mechanic said the dust boot was damaged, allowing dirt to get in and cause friction. It could also be noise from a stone stuck in the brake disc. Why is it louder when turning right? Because the outer wheel bears more force during a turn, exposing the weaknesses of older components. I tried cleaning the mud from the wheel hub myself, but it didn’t help, so I had to take it to the shop. I found that this car’s design has a large turning angle, which makes certain parts more prone to wear. After the repair, it hasn’t recurred for months. I recommend regularly checking the condition of the dust boots on the chassis and not waiting until the noise gets worse. Especially before long trips, it’s better to check for peace of mind and safety. Addressing small repairs promptly can cost just a few dozen bucks, but if left unattended, the half-shaft could fail, requiring a replacement that costs thousands—wasting money and causing delays. Drive gently and avoid sharp turns to prolong the lifespan.

I'm an experienced driver, and the abnormal noise when turning right in the Lavida should not be ignored as it relates to driving safety. It's mostly due to worn CV joints or loose suspension components making noise when shifting under force during turns. Long-term neglect may lead to misalignment and skidding in rainy weather. For a simple self-check: park and turn off the engine, push the right wheel to listen for clicking sounds to assess the bearings, and check the undercarriage for any oil leaks. If issues are found, get them repaired immediately to prevent major accidents. Prevention focuses on maintenance: clean debris from the wheel hubs monthly and replenish grease every six months. A healthy car with no abnormal noises is what brings peace of mind.
