having problem with the MDX... what could it be?

[jamchen]

alrite.. long story short... was just driving to fill up the tank...
the petrol station enforced me to make a U-turn as it is on the opposite site of the street...
the road was up-ward climbing up at the intersection i tried to make U-turn.. but when i processed to make the U-turn, just like usual step, i circled the steering wheel full right... however Serious sound and viberation came out from right-front wheel area... it sounded like the ABS was engaged so i thought it was just like that.. but i was worry about the sound so i went back to try again and this time without braking.. same thing happened!!! i now have not idea of what could be the cause of that...
what could it be?? its no way it was the calipers hitting the rims right?

edit:
it only happens to that particular U-turn... as i can't re-produce the sound at any other U-turns in both climbing or decenting conditions...

check your power steering fluid?

[jamchen]

but then why it only happened to that particular U-turn only??:S

[destrukshn]

does it do it while your turning to at a stand still?

traction control! james

read the owners manual you shouldn't have the steering at full lock for extended periods of time.

The whiring sound is normal, if its not a whiring your tyre is probably hitting the fender.

traction control! james

Because it went offroad? jxjx

Did you lock the steering wheel all the way in the turn?

in the wrong section... however it sounds similar to when the DPS fluid in hrv's + crv's degrades.

i'm not sure with the mdx as it uses vtm fluid. just pop by a dealer and have a roadtest with the foreman or service manager

[jamchen]

well it didn't happen when i full-locked the steering (only full-locked for about a sec or so)... it happened after i full-locked and start to circle left to make it straight up again... also i dun even think i full-locked in the second time..

highly doubtly it to be the tyre hitting the fender.. coz its coming from right-front wheel..

Vtecaccord: its alot louder than whiring... and also viberation to pedals...

Panda: i already changed my VTM @ 40,000km service on extra.. and the car is getting to 60,000km.. so yeah.. the VTM should be fine..

well... it doesn't happened when i entered the U-turn lane to stand still..

[panda[cRx]]

hmmm yeah then wont be vtm, get it checked out if it sounds as bad as you say

[VTECACCORD]

ur tyre is hitting the liner, thats what would cause you to feel it through the pedal.

I wouldn't worry about it

if its the liner: maybe u should check to see if the liners are in place (i.e. they havent come loose due to missing bolts and plugs)
