I had asked before about a scratching noise coming from the front. I did an inspection this past weekend and couldnt find anything hitting the rotors. Can it be a bad CV axle? I had the torsion cranked up pretty good, and it looks like most of the grease leaked out.
Could be. I would also check your hub.
Have you had any ABS or traction lights come on?
New CV axles, new hub and still making the noise. Im very fustrated, cant seem to find the problem.
Turn up the radio. :LOL: jk Hope you get it figured out. I know that noises can drive you crazy. I just delt with one last week. My truck made a loud thud sound everytime that I hit a bump, like a shock was bottoming out. Ended up being my back seat wasnt hooked and my sub was banging it into the back off the truck. Weird.
My truck is making a scratching type noise, front driver side. Ive changed the rotors, brake pads, CV axles and wheel hub. Thought maybe the pads where rattling so I put that brake grease/glue on them, still making the noise. Maybe I bent the caliper bracket when I hit some water on the road. Maybe the caliper isnt applying constant pressure to the pads. Dont know but its killing me. I just came back from a trip down Baja, so I know its something simple.
Do you have a way to get all 4 wheels off the ground? If so put it in 4 wheel drive with the front wheels off and pin point it.
Did that at work, no noise.
Sounds like a wheel bearing to me but you said you already replaced that.
Replaced it on Friday, before I left down to Baja.
Are you for sure of the side thats making the noise?
There is more than one front hub. Most times choosing which side is a crapshoot unless your choices put food on the table. Don't fret. I hope you have the bearing that came off. Put it on the side that has not yet been replaced. If that makes it go away you did the job twice but only paid for one new part.
I can hear where the noise is coming from when I put my head out the window.
Have you looked over your tires? Loose center cap?

Knew it had to be something simple. It usually is.
