I have some werid clicking/tapping sound when i turn while i drive. Does anyone have a clue what it might be, here is a link to the video i recorded on the noise.



Thank you for the replies so far. I can add that the previous owner had the car lowered and in my ownership it has been reverted to stock.

Sounds like movement in two piece rotors

Loose strut nuts

But also sound like exhaust rubbing on a brace or heat shield

I had a similar issue, though my clicking was a lot less vigorous. Turns out my wheel bearings had gone and needed to be replaced. Fixed my issue although I'm not certain yours is exactly the same. Sound only happened during low speed turns, that I could hear.

Wheel bearing(s) gets my vote, too.

Wheel bearing(s) gets my vote, too. Had the same issue with my elderly E39 M5 and the click you hear is almost exactly the sound it made right down to the changes when turning.

Before doing a bearing change. Just make sure that your front tires don't have the metal bands showing on the inner shoulders and blow out any potential little rocks stuck between the rotor and rotor shield.

This sounds very similar to when my suspension setup (from factory) was shredding my inner fronts to the point that I would be down to metal on the inner shoulder while the rest of the tire was at 80%. You would hear the type of noise that you have in your video during turning as the belts were more in contract with the road.
