Subject:Noise from left front wheel when making a right turn in my Syncro?
From:Robert Work

Squeaking noise is coming from left front wheel of my Syncro after first off
road trip last weekend. I went to Assateage Island National Park and the
Syncro performed flawlessly. We parked in a secluded area and the kids played in
the the sand until their hearts content. The best part about it were the
looks/stares from the passers by. I don't know if it was confusion or admiration or
both but it seemed like maybe it was the last place they were expecting to see
an old Vanagon. Got home and pressure washed the underside thoroughly to
remove salt. Anyway could this noise be the CV joint starting to fail? How can I
check it? Any help appreciated.
