didnt see anything in technical unless it was suspension or aero stuff, yadee yadee.

So it does not sound like any ABS I have ever heard of, my car makes a mean grinding scraping sound when flying into a parking lot turn and having to slam the brakes as I turn.
eitehr right or left, doesnt matter. THe mixture is HArd braking,. AND turning./

so is this car designed too low somewhere STOCK from the factory to do a diving turn without grinding something.

My speed is usually going from 30 to 5 FASt, but nothing too crazy like racetrack speeds. Any help greatly appreciated because I LOATH taking a car into service.

That is the ABS making that sound.

thats usually what happens when ur CB boot goes out when u turn it sounds like a metal scrapping the concrete.... id get that checked out

It's probably the EBD (electronic brakeforce distribution) activating the ABS on your inside rear tire (which would get light and lock up during the maneuver you describe.)

Kurve, I think you meant "CV boot" as in "constant velocity".

Kurve

yes did mean that ...the B AND V to close i cant type lol

ya, same thing happens to me. I dont think there is anything wrong with the car. Prob just ABS kicking in. If you do find that it is something wrong though, post on here and let me know.

I think maybe its time to do a forced fast stop in a straight line and see if that is indeed the unique sound of this cars abs.

5,000 miles is a bit too early for something brake related to be failing, so ABS or EBD is probably the anser.
ill pray on it lol

daaaargh now I think this is more like the culprit,

odd since I have been in no car accidents and only ONE pothole since buying new.

wouldnt the cv only make noise when its at a full lock and braking hard doesnt matter? Correct me if im wrong

My car makes a weird creaking/grinding noise when I drive over speedbumps at 70mph. Any thoughts?

How hard are you slamming on your brakes? Did you mean under emergency situations--someone pulled out in front of you--or daily driving?

The ABS in these cars is easy to set off and is quite loud. . . louder than the previous vehicles I've owned. I dunno if that is the particular noise you are talking about. I've also noticed that when I pull the ebrake and spin, my abs goes crazy!

JasonH

We're not talking about an xB here.

That's what I was going to say. Haha. You shouldn't be turning the wheels and slamming on the brakes anyway. Its probably your pads ripping themselves apart. You don't drive a race car, you drive an economy car. Unless you get some 13" Brembos, you need to drive it like one.

you tires only have so much grip
if you are useing 70% of your grip turning into a parking lot fast, then you slam on your brakes 50% then you run out of grip and slide then the ABS will kick in
So if you are useing 70% of your grip turning then you only have 30% of your grip left to either brake or accelerate

2eZee

this is what im doing, approach turn in lots a tad too fast sometimes, but certainly not wreckless.
SO then im doing a decent amount of brake force while needing to turn in sharply.
Lets just assume I never want to clip the car coming OUt of the lot as I go IN.

and I will hear that annoying grinding sound. Keep forgettting to abs this car in a straight line though. someone will think I am on the crack rock I guess.

weeeeeee! crack rocks

well in my old car everytime i turned the wheel it make a sick noise as something was dragging on concrete. Found out it was the CV Boot...but the thing is i had to get my whole axel replaced ...ZeeZee make sure u dont let it get worse where u have to get everything replaced. Then again could be something else because a new car i wouldnt think would have those problems early on but who knows just make sure.

bubblemyster

yeah, i hear a grinding noise when I hold the brake in and turn the wheel. THis woul be at 0mph. As in not moving. DOes anyone else get this noise?

djct_watt

Would it be your tires moving on the asphault? If you are talking about a noise other than that (besides the normal chug chug sound of the power steering pump, then you have a problem. I'd get the dealer to fix it under warrantee.

2eZee

the sound was my abs only, clamping ABS had me tricked for grinding, but rolled the tires in some puddles so they were good and slippery. Got the ABS going real easy this way, and confirmed the sound is normal . yadee yadee yadee

Zero defects then still
