Strange metallic Noise

[Bobdope2002]

had this for a while now and its starting to get on my wick a bit now

The symptoms are this:

It sounds as if metal is grinding on metal it only does it on mebbe 1/4 lock turning to the left not to the right (front left wheel it sounds like its coming from

and it seems to be a tad worse when the car is cold

Any ideas guys??

[Bobdope2002]

what do i need to look for

Score marks???

[Ritchy]

yeah basically mate any signs of rubbing, scores on the back of the discs ect, marks on arches ect

[fastmike]

Could be the dirt shield behind the disc, maybe even a small stone trapped in there
