Slight brrrrrrrp and vibration from front end

[jwilb4]

I've noticed that when I start moving from a full stop, with the wheels turned to the left, there is a slight "brrrrrrrp" and light vibration from the left front end (wheel?). Ideas?

As a easy troubleshooting start---suggest you check the wheelwell for signs of tire rub and check the swaybar links to see if one has failed.

sticking brake caliper? When was the last time you flushed your brake fluid?

We had a similar noise, happened at 30 - 40 mph on the entry ramp of a highway, felt like "rumble strips" the tires were worn but still a fair amount of tread, not really gone, but I changed the fronts and it went away...
(that was about a year ago, so I guess the tires were bad Michelin xvs)) (06 3.0 60,000 miles at the time)

Just flushed and replaced the hydraulic steering fluid. $75. Seems to have done the trick. I've been told it would be a good idea to repeat in a month or so in case any grime is still floating around in the rack.

This is what came out. It was a much darker brown than the picture shows. Looked like CocaCola.

This is what went in. Looked more like Strawberry Fanta!

I like how you used custard cups for flan to catch the fluid lmao!

Ha! It tasted OK but went right through me!

Just need to brown it with a kitchen torch and dust with nutmeg.
