Here's the situation:
Oftentimes (not all the time), when I turn the steering wheel even slightly left, I get a slight metalish-squealing sound coming from the drivers side front wheel area.
Sometimes, when I make a slow, hard right turn (like making a 90-degree turn from a stop), I get two clunking sounds from approximately the same area.
Is this something to be concerned about? I googled the first sound and there were many mentions of a warped rotor (and my friend told me he had the same problem and it was his rotor), but before I start the wild and expensive goose chase of bringing it to mechanics I figured I'd check around the internet.
I have a 2004 Hyundai Elantra, and got new tires 6 months ago.
Any suggestions?
