hey all i was hoping someone might be able to shed some light on this noise?

when i am almost stoped e.g parking and stuff (no noise when i turn when goen like 30km/h+)... their is a pretty bad metal scraping/grinding noise coming from my front left wheel area, but it only happens when i turn...

I thought it might have just been my front left spring fell out (as its held in with zip ties), but it only hapens when i turn & there is no noise out of the usual when i hit bumps...

Another thing... it just hapend all of a sudden... their was no noise... then BAM... grind...

i am a mechanical noob so yeh... any info will help heaps...

Thanks

mate jack your car up, take off your wheel and have a look to see if there is anythink obvious.. abd check around your gard etc for rubbing, my datto used to rub only on the left every time i pulled into my driveway.. it had chucky tyres...
