Hi,

Grinding can be coming from a few different things. First, can you tell if it is at the front or the rear of the vehicle? Also, if you apply the brakes, does the sound change in pitch or any way?

If there is no change, see if there is a change in the sound when making turns. Also, let me know if the sound changes with vehicle speed and if it is present when the vehicle is not moving.

Additionally, if the sound is loud enough to be recorded, please do so and upload it for me to hear.

Take care,

Joe
