Hi

I've got this scraping, grinding noise on the front drivers side only when i turn right. I have no idea really about cars, but i think its possibly something to do with the brakes or wheel bearing. Its fine when i turn left.

Anyone got any idea what it could be and how much it would cost to repair please?

sounds to me like your brake pads are low. it will do that when as one brake pad will be worn down more on one side than the other. £20 if you do the pads your self
