Knocking noise front front left wheel was created by ne-crock
As title says i have like a knocking/grinding noise from my front left wheel,

its happened ever since i went through a bog my feelings is something stuck where it shouldnt be so I'm giving it a blast tomorrow with a pressure washer try to dislodge anything stuck,

I'm going to have a full inspection tomorrow, but any ideas?

cheers

I had a similar thing going on, turned out to be a couple of small stones stuck in the vents of the brake disc.

Yeah could well be something caught between the disc and the disc guard behind it...

Right i havent had it apart, but

A few more issues,

The noise has developed into a sound similar to a train going along a track like chug chug,

Also ocasionaly my brakes screach like hell!

I'm not too great with these things to be honest
