Noises problem
2003 Honda Civic 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual 150000kms

My car recently started making a grinding noise. At first only when I turned right and now occasionally when turning left as well. I also noticed today that it makes the noise for a short second when you first accellerate forward with the wheel not turned. Although the noise seems to come from the back of the car when you go forward as opposed to the front when I turn.

So I left the car in the sun for a while and the noise has disappeared at least for now?? but as its winter and I live in Canada I'm sure it will be back.

Have both front wheel bearings checked on your vehicle.
