Title: Noise from near side front when turning right in new shape i30 2017
Post by: Bubbacpt on June 22, 2018, 20:39:11: Absolutely driving me crazy, when I turn right especially on a bumpy road there’s like a crackling noise coming from near side front wheel area. Can’t see anything obvious, has anyone else with the new model experienced this. Also getting rattling noise from the rear of car too. I can honestly say I wish I’d kept my old i30, great car with no problems, this one is a pile of *****.
No noise at all when turning left, only happening when turning right. Car is just over 1 year old, registered on 31 May 17.

No extraneous noises. :undecided:

@Bubbacpt
Go back to dealer asap because the parts are critical to safety.

sheeet sheet sheet sort of noise that goes when you brake look for stuck calliper dragging inside pad slide pins not greased properly

Post by: Bubbacpt on July 30, 2018, 14:46:59: Had it checked out but nothing obvious, I have however noticed that if I put the front passenger near side window down the noise is not there, not sure if that’s the problem or if I just can’t hear it because of road noise cause the windows open :lol:

Ok, they said nothing obvious... so what did you say, other than it's driving me crazy? What action did they take? :crazy1:
