noise.....

[Rhyso]

oky doke had my clutch fitted yesterday - that works a treat except that i know have a metal on metal noise when turning right AND only turning right 

also only makes this noise when going foward not backward.....

suggestions??

i think its a driveshaft rubbing against something  or it even possibly sounds like the brake caliper is catching the wheel though i've never had any problems before.

took it to local garage who suggested it was the exhaust  twits!

Something wrong with the brake caliper or disc?
Splash shield bent?

I had this noise after I got my clutch fitted,  the noise is...........

Your brake disc n pad, I'm guessing they have been on the car over 6months & bed in now.  So when you remove them & refit them they won't sit exactly in the same place & you get that rubbing noise turning right.

The noise went after 4 days of driving (the pads bed in again)

wow really!!?? hope thats the case mate.  Discs and pads have been on for 18 months now.  Really hope thats the case mate 

any idea why it only happens when you're turning right though?  and it only happens after one full rotation of the steering wheel 

got to bed in my new clutch but it deffo feels the real deal
