Why Does Volkswagen Make Abnormal Noise When Turning?
2 Answers
Reasons for abnormal noise when turning in Volkswagen: 1. Steering gear failure; 2. Abnormal noise from the shock absorber plane bearing or stabilizer bar. If the noise is very loud when turning, it may be caused by excessive gear clearance in the steering gear, in which case the steering gear needs to be replaced; If the noise comes from the shock absorber plane bearing, some butter can be applied to the plane bearing. Volkswagen is an automobile manufacturing company headquartered in Wolfsburg, Germany, with brands such as Audi and Volkswagen under its umbrella. Taking Volkswagen CC as an example: it is a standard coupe that perfectly combines the stability of a sedan with the sensitivity of a sports car, featuring a 4-door design, interior with a distinct sporty style, continuing the style of Volkswagen's high-end business sedan series, with brightly colored high-quality leather sports seats and a leather intelligent sports steering wheel highlighting the characteristics of speed and dynamism.
The noise when I turn my Volkswagen makes me very uneasy, often making creaking or rubbing sounds when steering, which is mostly a suspension system issue. Recently, I checked it myself and found that aging shock absorbers or loose stabilizer bar links can cause increased friction under turning pressure. Worn suspension ball joints are also a common cause, especially when turning on bumpy roads where the sound is more noticeable. It's recommended to visit a 4S shop for inspection as soon as possible, as they can diagnose the issue with professional tools. Don't forget to lubricate suspension components during regular maintenance to extend their lifespan, making driving more reassuring. Insufficient tire pressure or severe tire wear may also indirectly cause noise, but suspension faults are usually the first to be checked.
