Hi All, Does Anyone Have This Problem?

[MrB]

Hi im MrB,

Im new on here, but its looking like a really helpful site!

I own a Chilli Red Tsport 02 Plate

ive got a rubbing noise from a front wheel arch, when i complete a Full Right lock, ive taken it in to toyota a while ago for the same problem and they said it was the arch cover that had come unclipped!

It has recently happened again, and now it is out of warrenty basically Toyota dont want to know me!

have any of u experienced this?

Thanks

MrB

Check the plastic panel on the inner front of your arch these sometimes come loose. Compare it to the other side, if its loose and it wont clip back simply use a self tapper.

Hi mate and welcome!

Take a look at both sides as said above and see if something doesn't look right and if it doesn't maybe take it to a bodyshop or just get the parts needed from Toyota themselves!

you say rubbing...would you say it's more of a grateing noise...as i have the same problem. told toyota..they said they fixed it...still does it!! Typical Toyota!!

I belive it's the stone Guard though, just ermm manipulated it away from the brake disc slightly..and no more grating noise. Belive it's due to the steering camber as you go to full lock wheel camber out, and causes this rubbing..if it's the same thing!
