it sounds like the gear box either in need of some oil or it's on it's way out my mums car has a similar problem when driving at speed thers a loud wyning noise i reckon it's in need of some oil the gear box that is or the wheel bearing wants replacing
Bearing going bad?
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.
Its hard to say... do u know where the noise is coming from?
Probably
replace hub or wheel bearings.
engine problems not trans.
i have a grinding noise on the front left wheel. i have taken the calipa off and i have one brake pad that is shot. could it be that or can it still be the bearing. how can i find out.
Noise coming from engine in Oldsmobile Cutlass could be as a result of an oil leak in the rear of your engine. This makes the gears to wear off leading to severe knocking noise.
We would need to know where the noise was coming from and under what conditions it made the noise in order to make an assessment.
The starter could grind if the bendix is sticking
The grinding noise is the brakes pads proably the noise is in the front. The front brake pads are easy to replace and is a do it yourself sort of thing. My guess is your brake light is coming on because of this condition. I assume your brake light has been coming on for a little while now.
The noise is the teeth on the flywheel grinding on the teeth of the starter. Check to see if the starter is loose, this is the most common cause of that noise.
