Chevy Aveo CV-Joint

aveoOh5

ok so my 2005 aveo is making a really bad grinding noise in the front passenger tire only when i make a left turn not right and i took it to a mechanic a few months ago and he said nothing was wrong (which is total bs), since then it has progressively gotten worst however there is no way that a car can make that bad of a noise and there be nothing wrong..i personally think CV-Joint

Did you check to see if you had a stone caught in your front brakes. It sounds like grinding, cv joint makes alot of noise specially when you turned the wheel left or right.
And the steering wheel jerks left and right when making turns. Hope this helps.

It is actually most likely the wheel bearing - common issue. Typically, one goes while still under warranty and the other side finds a way to give out once you're past the warranty mileage limit. My service invoice from one warranty repair for this indicates these parts were used. No pricing or detail. I assume "Ring" means bearing.

Ring - 94535121

:confuse: I have same noise problem with front wheel passenser side, tested by jack off each side at a time run enngine (with emergency brake on of course) and compare, i suspect the passenger side front bearing gone bad.
I got the front bearing ready to replacing it myself but can not take the wheel hub off in order to access to the bearing to replace it ...!!!???...
I really need some help from the experts or some one can send me the assembly diagram of the front wheel assembly could be helpful, ... Thanks in advance guys..

i am having the same issues, i have yet to find the book for the car, from looking at some other manuals for other front wheel drive chevy models it looks like it comes out from the back, after you remove the nut the shaft pushes through the back, this means you have to disconnect it from the trans first,??? is it really this difficult to do this? would love to here from someone who has done this !!! :confuse:

I got two tires put on the front and one side started making a grinding noise when I turned, it turned out to be the tire tech had bent a dust cover which goes over the brakes, the dust cover was replaced and the noise stopped.
