The noise comes and goes. The sound is coming from what I can hear is over the passenger front wheel well area. The grinding does not happen while the car is still. I rev the engine and no noise. As soon as I put the car in drive I then hear the noise, lasts for about 10 seconds then goes away, then 10 seconds and so forth. The car drives perfectly and I have experienced no problems. Any idea what this noise is?
Thanks

Hi 747marine,

Thank you for the donation.

The description of the symptoms seems to be the operating noise of the ABS pump which is failing.

Does the ALB lamp shows after long perionds of driving?

Do you have brake fluid losses or overflowing at the master cylinder and ABS pump reservoir?
