weird noise near wheels when driving

[d00dz]

The car has a weird noise comming from the wheels (I think) seems to happen when im in tunnels or where there is place for the noise to reflect up to the windows..

When im turning say right slightly it seems to go away, but when i turn left abit it starts, its like a flap flap flap sound with a slight grind?

what could it be? ive checked the tires for screws and stuff...

This just only got my attention today as I was driving in the sydney harbour tunnel.

I had a squeek in my old lancer that stopped when i was slightly turning left or braking. I think it was my cv joint. There was grease everywhere coming from the CV Boot so i guess it had no lube, gotta hate that

Could be other things though, Check for leaks or something loose, then wait for someone that knows what there talking about to help you better

yea im gonna take it to C&V performance tommorrow.

does it appear to only come from one side of the vehicle? Front? Rear?

Could be one of you calipers has come loose and is knocking slightly on the rim.

Could be loose wheel nuts and the wheel is knocking against the wheel nuts.

yea it seems to come from the front right..

there is one nut missing on the right front tyre also. 1/5 missing.

couldnt find C&V, so i took it to DB4's the dude said to take it there tommorow around 4pm to get it checked out.

Hopefully its nothing major

Do you have slotted brake rotors? If yes, have you checked your pad levels? some pads have a metal clip which acts as a wear indicator when they get down really low.
