Grinding Noise after doing front end work.

Post by EmersonS70t5m »

So, this is probably going to be something really stupid but my dad and i are not going to chance it. Just did some lowering springs on my 1999 S70 T5m and when we finally drove it for the first time, it makes a constaint grinding from the front right. It only does it when the steering is cwntered or skme right. Any thoughts??

Check the dust shields behind the rotors. They are easily bent and rub on the rotors.
