Ok, there is this weird noise coming from the drivers side front tire when I'm turning. Now its only sometimes and when I first startup. Time of the day doesn't matter and after driving for a few minutes it stops. Sometimes I notice it more when turning to the left. Checked underneath and don't really notice anything loose, broken or leaking. Can anyone shed some lights on this??

jack front end up and ck for up/down movement in wheels.
most likely hub(s).

the bearings in the hubs are known to go out , also check that the boots on the front CV's aren't ripped ,if so you may need a new or rebuilt drive axle . new is better .

I was quoted $500 and $550 here, but I bought the hub assembly @ Advance for $185 and did it myself. 2.5 hours of wrenching to save about $350.
