Wheel Bearing?

[MUSKOKA800]

Could be a CV joint.
Either way, get ye to a mechanic if you can't diagnose and wrench yourself.

I'll find out 100% tomorrow, but I don't think it's the CV. I checked the boot and everything looks tight and no grease showing.

Pretty sure it's the wheel bearing as I can move the wheel when it's jacked up, and only from that one side.

I'll update tomorrow after I'm back from the garage. :P

2011 , too bad , no update ... I am having a sound when turning left
"Tac Tac Tac ", the more weight put in the curve ; the louder the
"Tac Tac Tac" ,nothing in a straight line , just quiet as can be ,
it does it equally under load or breaking , or just coasting thru the curves
was wondering if it was a half shaft , or wheel bearing .....
sounds like it is coming from front right side
but that can be deceiving , sometimes other rattles sounded like
they were coming from the front ,and turned out it was something
in the back of the car ...
any expert opinions ??

That type of sound when turning is most likely a CV joint going bad. Check for a ripped boot, which is typically what starts the sequence of failure.

no ripped boot , all looks good down there
low speed, high speed ; = "ta ka ta ka ta ".....
the more weight applied to the wheel , in the curve ,
the louder the "ta ka ta ka ta "
in the past I have had cv joints go bad
and there was a difference in the loudness of the
sound when you accelarated compared to just coasting thru a curve
that is why I was hoping someone else had the same
behavior described .
I'll look into this during the next weeks and report results.
Thanks for reply CTScott

Found my problem ..
sort of thread jacking ... but it is the same subject
.
I knew my sound was not the same as described by the
original poster , he described very well with his words
' a growling and resonating noise'' and that sounds like a wheel bearing.
. my '' scratch , scratch ,scratch '' noise was different ,
and only when turning left .
turns out it was a brake part , sorry I did not take a picture , but
it is the part of the Caliper that does not move , the part that is held
by 2 17mm bolts , where the rotor almost touches at the bottom ,
when turning , well mine touched just a bit , and it was enough to
make of huge sound , when the brake pads leave a lip on the outer
part of the rotor , that lip gets rusted and creates a crust , that crust
rubbed on the caliper part , took the grinder and removed the lip all
around the rotor , then removed the part held by 2 17mm bolts ,
the brake pads stay attached to that part , so no need to remove
them , and I grounded off some metal , sort of a defect in the
molding of that cast Iron part , a crest in the metal , no more noise .
.
Hopes this helps someone else some day
