Recommended Posts

Hello guys I just got nice Lexus is200 sportđź‘Ť but the problem now is that front wheels grinding when at the speed ,a lot right more then left,corner side driver dashbord shakes.....but I did read all topicks about the breaks etc. I took wheels off inspected. I'm good with cars,but can't find fault as checked breaks (didn't removed to inspected) as when I turn wheel its moves easily but u can hear grinding litlle from pads,then I found that's brake disc have play on hub wheel holding bolts?... There is no bolts holding discs to hub? Checked pictures on Internet it seems to be that's normal?..so now I lost my clues,did is possible that grinding still comes from breake calipers there are new but used....rear bolts are rusty so this might be problem.....I do have good breaks,when I turn steering wheels when drive in left or right it's feel like not grinding as Mach feels more smooth......can u help me as I can't find folt with is....I Olso checked plates be hind discs they do not touch discs.......I have wear tires in side edges I booked for Wedsday all chassis alignment can be wheel.bearings?????

Sounds like wheel bearings, remove brake pads then spin the wheels and listen for roughness,if you touch the coil spring and spin the wheel you should be able to feel the vibration.

Try and wobble the wheel top to botom and side to side with it off the ground to check for bearing play.
