Default Strange noise when turning only to right...

Please, check the video and tell me if you know what is this weird noise... Thanks for any comment. The noise is there only when I turn to right. When I turn to left nothing happens, thanks...

Wheel bearing? It's usually more subtle than that, but...

Only other thing that seems reasonable is brakes. Need to remove the wheel and have a look.

Wheel bearings are brand new. They where changed one month ago. May be the brakes. I will go monday to have that checked and have a pro advice. But if its the brakes, is this noise possible only on turning to right? Thanks...

Sounds like the rotor is hitting the rotor shield to me.

That sounds like a warn control arm. Get the vehicle up on a jack stand or lift and see if you can wiggle the control arms around with the wheel cocked to try and pin point which one.

Default Solved

Finally, the problem was the front wheel alignment. Both wheels were going nowhere. Thanks to a good and correct guy to find the problem after 5 minutes of driving test. My car was "aligned" in a Napa AutoPro in Montreal at the end of 2013, but the job was not done well. They charge me 69,95, and after when I went to pay, they give a final bill for 89,95 more taxes because they said that the oxygen was necessary. A place of assh--s, you know? Be careful when you bring your cars to a garage, specially when you don't know the place. I believed that was a serious place... I was in a correct place and paid 59,95. The smile is back on my face. Thanks again to Serge...

Noise problem caused by friction due to the bad wheel camber...
