Metal noise from driver wheel well when turn
 
Hi,
I'm getting a loud metal noise (metal against metal) from the drive side wheel well when I turn the wheel to the left. I checked all the boot and they are good. It didn't make the noise when I turn the wheel to the right though. The noise is there when I turn the wheel no matter if the vehicle is moving or stand still. I heard about the sway bar link problem but I'm not sure it's the same. I got a tiny noise when the vehicle is moving forward though. Please help.

Best advice (based on your description) is "Drive to your nearest dealer and have the service advisor take a look and listen. Kinda hard to hear that noise and visualize what the problem may be from behind the keyboard. ;)

99% is the sway bar link is bad.or you may have to check the shock town bolts .
