grinding while turning

[etlsport]

do you mean like its the tires rubbing? or the tires just suck so they are slipping? (they are only about 7 months old)

yea i am NOT keen on letting anyone else drive my VX.. the guy i had to give my keys to had to be at least 70.. he was hard of hearing and didnt seem to think too quickly.. made me very nervous, ive modified my shifter console quite a bit so its not obvious how to get it into gear.. i explained it to him like 4 times before leaving... didnt see him move the vx but i hope he got it, guess ill see in about 3 hours

p.s. dont mean any offence to the elderly and im not trying to say every 70 year old is a bad driver or anything.. but this particular guy didnt seem fit to drive at all

In my case I think it had to do with my tires reacting with the TOD and AWD. It was like when I would turn the tires would feel like they were wobbling a little. Its hard to describe. That said, it was definitely NOT a rubbing or a grinding, so I am not sure exactly what your problem is...

etlsport,
were you turning the steering as far as it would go?? i sometimes get a wobble when im turning, and the steering wheel is as far left, or right as it will go. i dont know what im trying to say, but i know it has happened to me also. i only have to do this when i park in a certain place, and instead of backing up, i just cut it hard left, and pull out. but instead of holding the steering wheel all the way turned, i let off just a bit, still make my turn, and the wobble doesnt happen anymore.

yeah, it was when the wheel was turned as far as i could go (it was a tight parking garage to begin with and there was a row of cars double parked on one side.. so turning was tough, and the sound/feeling only came when i was holding the wheel at fully locked to the left (dont remember if it happened to the right or not... dont think it did)

p.s. i was right.. the guy still didnt understand how to use my shifter (press the shifter down to release shiftlock) so when i came back to my car it was moved.. but all they did was take the 4wd shifter out of position and push the VX to its new spot

Mine does this as well when the wheel is turned as far as it can go...
