Hello all, I am having a problem. I have a 97 saturn sc2 and there is a sound coming from the right front tire area of my car. The sound sounds like when you spin a wrechet wrench. I was thinking it might be the brake pad indicator but I thought that sounded like a scratching sound. It's only coming from that area. Can anyone help. I did just get my serpitine belt changed.

look for loose tools, and check your axles to do that put it in reverse and lock the steering wheel, and you should hear the noise if it is an axle.

Thanks 01dbsc2 but i tried that and I don't hear any sounds. The sound comes and goes while driving. Do you or anyone else have anymore ideas?

Mine did the same and was the brakes.

If it does it primarily when you are turning I'd check the rubber boots covering the CV joints and see ifthey have been compromised. If so, it sounds like a new joint(s) are in order.The clicking sound would be the balls in the wornout races. Edited by: MINICooperS

If it does it while driving, turning slightly one way and then goes away when turning the other way it probally a wheel berring/hub repair kit. We sell alot of themEdited by: sw2cam
