    Screeching from front left

    Hello all,

    I've got a screeching taking place on my front left wheel when i turn left, I havent been able to pick whether its brake related or another issue. Just abit more info too, it starts as soon as the steering wheel is moved anti clockwise, eg just driving around a long corner or just changing lanes.

    Does anyone have any ideas??

    Thanks ahead

    Is it loud?

    Maybe a rock caught inbetween your disk and rear sheild?

    I doubt its a rock then. Cause you wouldnt drive if there was a rock in there.

    Ive had problems with the deal before about the problem, I have driven the car with the noise taking place and they act stupid as if they cant hear it.
    (this is with 3 "mechanics" in the car) they say they cant hear or find anything.

    But yeah there clearly is, as i have had drivers past me and stop me on the noise and friends can hear it as clear as day when in the car

    I suggest you see another dealer for a second opinion, and if you still get no resolution, get in touch with VW Australia.
