Noise Under Dash

I don't know if its the brakes or not but this is what i hear. Every time I make a right turn there is a noise from under the dashboard (only right turn) other then that the car drives like a dream.
Its driving me crazy, i have a servive appointment tomorrow will see what they have to say.

PS. I do have good pads, so thats not the problem, at least i don't think...

Re: Noise Under Dash

I went to the Nissan Dealer, as the mechanic checked out my car 1st he found that the left side tie rod need to be replaced.
After replacing tie rod noise was still there, he continued to check and also found me left front strut housing was the one making all the noise , the strut kit including all parts were replaced and all is fine now.

I wonder if your tie rod end really needed to be replaced. I hate the guessing game that some machanics play with our cars.
Tie rod end problems are easy to identify/diagnose. I have done it myself and it is not rocket science. Hope everything was covered under warranty.
