At very low speed I hear a noise in right front wheel area when turning. If I kick transmission into neutral the noise disappears. It only seams to do in when in gear.
When driving in straight line, no noise. At speeds of 15 mph and higher I do not hear noise.
I removed right wheel and see nothing unusual other that rubber boot on axel to wheel.
Suggestions??

Hi there,

This may be a wheel bearing problem of a CV issue, often when you take it out of gear you unload the drive line and these noises ease up, get a mechanic to road test and report for you.
