#1: grinding noise Author: harvey, Location: birminghamPosted: Sun Dec 12, 2010 11:54 am ---- hi i own a 206 1.9d there's a grinding noise coming from the passenger side and the steering slightly shakes iv had the tracking done and the steering still shakes a litlle but the noise has still not gone and has got even worse now i thought it was the pads grinding so i jacked it up took of the passenger side wheel had a look and the brake pads seem to be fine
i spinned around the wheel disc and i could hear a grinding noise like its the driveshaft or something so i stuck the wheel back on and shaked it and the wheel was shaking even the nuts were tighed on so cud any one out there shed some light on this what it could be thanks

Yeah, take it to a garage to be done, I think (could be wrong) they need to be pressed on.
