Strange Noise

[ally88]

I have started hearing a strange noise coming from somewhere near the front left wheel. I only hear it when turning left does anyone know what it could be. A mate that was in the car said he thought it was the drive shaft.

I had this kind of problem on my valver and I replaced the driveshaft and both cv boots and the problem was still there! In the end it was the engine heat shield that was rubbing on the manifold! No more noise!
