evan9381 Posted July 1, 2010 Report Share Posted July 1, 2010 time for me to finally make a thread on my beater car, ive had this slight tapping thats been annoying me for a few months. its gotten progressively worse. im pretty sure its coming from my front passenger side symptoms - taps/clicks every time the wheel makes a full rotation louder when i am turning right, quieter when turning left. stops tapping when im braking slight vibration when braking, but less than i would expect from a warped rotor slight wheel shimmy, goes away at about 70mph, but i've had it since i bought the car 2+ years ago what ive done/checked - the brake pads and rotors were replaced like 18 months ago IIRC. so they might have ~10-12k miles on them...not many the lug nuts are all tight. i jacked the car up to see if the wheel would move to indicate a worn out bearing, but couldnt get any movement out of it. nothing in the tire (nails, etc...i know the one time i got a nail in a tire it clicked a lot louder, but obviously something like that wouldnt stop under braking) anything else i should check for? im going to pull the wheel off this weekend and put a straight edge to the rotor to see if its warped, but would a warped rotor click louder if im turning right, but not left?
