Got a few questions, first off all, my 96 cel will make a grinding (sounds like metal to metal to me) when i make a right turn, specially at a semi-fast speed. it's kind of hard to describe for me since i've never heard this before. it is definetely not a cv-joint problem since i know how that sounds. any ideas what this could be???? im gonna go under the car today and try to find out but it's kinda scary since i gotta drive 1/2 hour to work and back everyday on the highway. could it be a wheel bearing problem? also when im driving forward (not turning) i feel a vibration as if i was driving on un unpaved road, if that makes any sense?

Another thing is... i took the car to have an allignment done twice and they couldn't make the car's pull to the left stop, i know this car was involved in an accident prior me obtaining it. Is this a body shop issue where they can fix the pull by pulling on the metal or something? how do they fix the problem? thanks!
