So far, I have read about CV joints and wheel bearings. The most common sound associated with CV joints is clicking, and this isn't clicking. I see not tears in the CV boot. The wheel isn't loose, either. There are a variety of sounds apparently associated with the wheels rotating (versus engine reving) but the pitch doesn't raise and lower much with speed variations. I think a banging noise, like something spinning loose is hitting something fairly hard, best describes it, but there are also sqeaking, screaching, clanging noises, but I wouldn't say clicking. I don't think it is a belt (I had a loose belt pulley on another card that made sounds, but not like these. Plus, all the pulleys are on the right side).
The noise happens while driving straight but intensifies when turning, either direction. I'm not sure, but it may be affected by the AC. It makes noise whether the AC is on or not, but maybe a bit more when the AC is on.
I am not a mechanic, but I took the wheels off and looked around everywhere I could and I see no obvious signs of any trouble. Before I take it in to a mechanic, can anyone guess what it may be?
Thanks
