My question is after I am driving for a little while or especially if I am stopped and idling for a few minutes I hear a roaring noise from the front end of the car.
almost sounds like when the power steering was going out on an old car I had, but this noise continues if I am driving straight or turnning.
thank you in advance for any help on this

Hi Marilyn56,

Noise problems are difficult to analyse online unless you can give a clear description of it happening under what conditions and emitted from where.

If the noise occurs intermittently and while idling as described, I would suspect the cooling fans to be the cause.

Turn the AC on and if noise comes on, check the fan, the motor could be failing.
