You should probably check the CV joint. If it's worn you could have some serious trouble soon.
If you don't know how to check the CV joint, take it to a shop that specializes in front end work.
depends on where the grinding id coming from
If there is no heat coming out of the vents, but there is air coming out on a 2003 Mercedes Benz E-320, check the thermostat to make sure it is not sticking. If this is okay, check the heater core. If the heater core is bad, there will be water on the passenger side floorboard.
It depends on where the grinding noise is coming from. Most of the time the grinding is coming from the brakes and the brake pads need to be replaced. If they've been grinding for a while, the rotors will need to be resurfaced or replaced. Other possibilities for grinding are worn axle bearings, or a problem with the clutch. If the clutch goes out, there will be a grinding noise when you try to shift gears.
DOES IT DO IT WHEN YOU RUN THE A/C ALSO? IS THE SOUND COMING FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE BEHIND THE DASH? IF SO IT COULD BE THE BEARINGS GOING BAD IN THE FAN BLOWER MOTOR.
its coming from the front end from the wheels we thought it was the wheel bearing
Bearing going bad?
Check if muffler is loose, check if rear brakes are worn out & grinding
