Whistling noise when turning left

Got a really strange one on my 2010 5.0 SC AB. When I turn left, I get a sound which is like a faint football whistle which seems to be coming from the passenger side footwell or thereabouts. Only does it when turning left!

Unless there’s a weird noise transmission going on, I’d say it’s definitely not the PAS belt, or the rack (and it’s only left anyway, and doesn’t need to be on full lock for the noise to appear). Definitely seems to be inside the car. Otherwise everything is fine and the car drives perfectly.

Any ideas? 5.0 S/C Autobiography - now gone to pastures new....

My blower fan makes a slight squeel when I make a right turn, guessing the bearings are wearing. Could it be the same on yours ?? Also own a 1976 Land Rover 101 3.5 V8.

Yes that’s a possibility, it’s certainly the right sort of noise. I’ll try with the fan off later and see if that makes any difference, thanks. 5.0 S/C Autobiography - now gone to pastures new....

Full marks landy95 Thumbs Up I tried it this morning with the fan switched off and no noise! Thanks for that, at least it's nothing major, and nothing which a bit more radio volume won't cure!! 5.0 S/C Autobiography - now gone to pastures new....

I purchased a complete set of wheel bearings 2 years ago when it first started, thinking it must be the ns front. I turned the blower off one day and it was silent. The fan is still working just a bit squeaky on right hand bends. And I have a full set of wheel bearings should the need arise to replace them.
I'm glad you found the issue. Also own a 1976 Land Rover 101 3.5 V8.
