2006 CR-V grinding noise rear axle slow speeds while turning?

There are a few possible causes for a grinding noise coming from the rear axle of a 2006 CR-V when turning at slow speeds. Here are a few things you can check:

1. Wheel bearings: If the wheel bearings are worn out, they can make a grinding noise when the vehicle is turning. Check the wheel bearings for play and replace them if necessary.

2. CV joints: The CV joints allow the wheels to turn while providing power from the transmission to the wheels. If the CV joints are worn out, they can also make a grinding noise. Check the CV joints for damage and replace them if necessary.

3. Differential: The differential is responsible for distributing power to the wheels. If the differential is damaged, it can make a grinding noise. Check the differential for leaks or other signs of damage and repair or replace it if necessary.

4. Brake pads: If the brake pads are worn out, they can make a grinding noise when the brakes are applied. Check the brake pads and replace them if necessary.

5. Parking brake shoes: If the parking brake shoes are worn out, they can make a grinding noise when the parking brake is engaged. Check the parking brake shoes and replace them if necessary.

6. Driveline: Check the driveline for loose or damaged components

7. Rear differential fluid level: Check the fluid level and condition, low fluid or old worn out fluid can cause damage and grinding noise.
