tcspeer Posted April 7, 2004 Share Posted April 7, 2004 On my 97 mail wagon I sat on the right and when I turn hard left I hear a sound like escaping air coming from the front tire. It is not one solid sound it is like you hear it with each rotaion of the tire. (sis-sis-sis-sis) I hope that is the correct way to type escaping air. It is not the tire or wheel because I put another tire and wheel there and it still does it. Any ideals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canajun2eh Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 Sounds more like a brake pad rubbing on the disk. Check the brake pads, and maybe clean the dust off the brakes. In general, I wouldn't worry too much about a little noise like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99obw Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 While you are checking check to see if the pads are wearing evenly. If they aren't it's a sign of the caliper and pads not moving freely, which will reduce mileage and brake life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
