Grinding noise when I put my foot down.

[Reyes]

I dont normally drive like a tool but tonight I decided that I wanted to scare the mrs a little on a country road. I wasnt driving dangerously or over the speed limit lol. I decided to boot it and in 2nd gear I heard a grinding noise coming from the front wheels. I have no clue what it is. Any ideas? Cheers.

Wouldn't be driveshaft related would it?

 

[Will.]

Dead rabbit caught in the front of your car?

 

[jonny_g]

pad contact with discs? warped front discs?

 

[Reyes]

Tbh it sounds more like a driveshaft problem bud.
Worrying atm.

do you get a knocking when you put it on lock? Could be a destroyed wheel bearing.

i had this once.

check your top engine mount.
i susspected mine was moving. all i had was a lucazade bottle, so i put the top down the back of the mount and the noise went away untill i braked and i saw the top bouncing down the road behind me.

I had this too, had a driveshaft and upper engine mount replaced - was sweet afterwards

I'd get the mounts and driveshafts checked mate
