Noise on the passenger side while turning left?

Hi there! Does anyone of you experience the same problem? It really annoys me whenever I turn left, it sounds like something's scratching my tire but when I check it, nothing's there... Can someone help me on this? Thanks in advance.. BTW I have a '98 NB.

I had a similar problem on the right side. My problem was a bad upper strut mount bushing.

I had a similar problem on my '98, turned out to be the wheel bearing.

Could be as simple as your mud shield is busted and rubbing. Does it sound like popcorn? It could be a CV joint or as said before a strut bushing.
