    Scraping noise this morning when turning wheels at slow speed.. Never heard before? Brake discs or could something be caught?

    Could be a stone stuck in one of the discs. Happened me a couple of weeks ago. Brought it to a garage but the stone feel out on the way. Was told if it happens again to reverse and break hard to dislodge it.

    Happened to my Volvo it was the dust guard on the brake being slightly bent so if rubbed the brake disk at full lock. Its fairly light metal so I just bent it back in place. The sound it made was horrendous like a shovel been scraped across concrete

    Had a similar noise with Mazda6 a few months back. Turns out it was the power-steering system. A low fluid level.
