I'M BRINGING THIS THREAD
BACK FROM THE DEAD!!!
I've got an 88 GTU, fyi, and very clean.
I'm bring it back mostly because I have the same issue as above, only on both sides. Can't tell if it's the bearings, the pads, the rotors...???
I'll turn right at 25 mph, I get jingling, or chirping, from one side. I turn to the other, it happens again. when I'm headed straight and it isn't jingling, I press slightly on the brakes and it starts up again. Foot off of the brakes, it stops. At higher speeds it is pretty much a constant. Much lower and it doesn't happen at all.
Any ideas? Experience?
Thanks! Zack

Probably wheel bearings. Lift up the front of the car and grab the tires at the 3 and 9 position and move the wheel around. If the wheel moves around then the wheel bearing is bad.
But don't confuse movement with the steering rack movement.
