    Hey all,

    I don't know where this is supposed to go so i'll just put it here i guess.
    Ever since i got this car it has been makeing a weird noise from the Driver Front Wheel area and its only gotten louder the more i drive it. It only happens when I turn right. I think it might be a CV Shaft going bad what do you all think i have a youtube video of it up at
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6jwSv1dL2EI

    Please watch the video and give me your thoughts.

    Thanks in advance,
    tgarison

    P.S.
    If you decide to watch the one other vid i have on that channel please be my guest.

    that would be a wheel bearing

    The link won't work for me, it says the vid is private. Once the noise starts, does it go away when you press the brake?

    No it does it when i turn to the right it doesn't seem to matter if i'm braking, accelerating or coasting, if i turn to the right that's when it makes that noise.

    The reason it seemed loud is i had an external mic plugged into the camera and the mic was pointed at the Driver Front wheel thats why it seems louder then expected. I wanted to make sure you could hear it.
