I see... first of I will suggest that the transmission be checked. It could be worn out and there can be metal dusts/shavings caused by the grinding. I suggest that you put in a good grade transmission fluid to get your transmission back to it's normal operation.

Dried out transmission or burnt fluid can make a noticeable grinding sound on the transmission Arthur. AC DELCO transmission fluid is a good one.

Customer

Ok Arthur, I suspect that the front drive shaft constant velocity joints are worn out. Both should be replaced since you can feel them on both sides.

They can really make an annoying noise during turns. They do wear out over time and if you haven't replaced them for quite some time I believe now is the time. They will cost at least $85 Arthur.
