I recently noticed that my BMW X5 makes a strange grinding noise whenever I turn the steering wheel, particularly when I am driving at lower speeds. What could be causing this issue and is it something I should be concerned about?
ReplyIt is possible that this noise is coming from your power steering system. If the power steering fluid is low or contaminated, it can cause the components to grind against each other, creating that strange noise. You should have your power steering system checked by a qualified mechanic to determine the source of the issue and have it repaired if necessary.
Another potential cause could be a worn-out steering belt. Over time, the belt can become loose or develop cracks, causing it to make a noise when the steering wheel is turned. It is important to have this checked and replaced if necessary, as a broken steering belt can result in loss of control of the vehicle.
