Sounds like the brake is the problem. First unclip and remove the rear wheels. If you don't have the user manual you can get a copy at www.bugaboo.com but it's just a spring clip holding the wheel in. Holding the stub axel spin each wheel with your hand to check they spin freely. If not wash in warm water then spray with silicon spray. Now check the movement of the brake system. Spray the lever cable and brake shoes with the silicon spray. Lubricant does not effect the brakes as it works using teeth not friction. But wear will damage your brake by rounding off the teeth. Fit wheels back on and adjust the brake cable with the small screw at the bottom of the cable so shoes clear the wheel teeth in the brake off position.

2020 kia Sorento 2.4 liter Clicking sound on the driver side when turning

possible reasons for this issue:

CV Joint Issues: The clicking sound during turns could be related to the constant velocity (CV) joints. These joints allow the wheels to transfer power from the transmission to the wheels while maintaining flexibility during steering. If a CV joint is worn or damaged, it can produce clicking sounds. Inspect the CV joints for any signs of wear, such as torn boots or visible damage.

Wheel Bearing Problems: Faulty wheel bearings can also cause clicking noises during turns. A worn-out wheel bearing may produce a clicking or grinding sound. Check for any play or looseness in the wheel when jacked up. If you notice excessive play, it's likely that the wheel bearing needs replacement.

Suspension Components: Inspect the suspension components on the driver's side. Loose or worn-out components, such as control arms, bushings, or sway bar links, can create clicking sounds when the vehicle turns.

Steering System: Check the steering system components, including the tie rods, steering knuckles, and steering column. Damaged or worn parts can lead to clicking noises during turns.
Brake Caliper Issues: Sometimes, a loose brake caliper or worn brake pads can cause clicking sounds. Ensure that the brake caliper bolts are properly tightened and that the brake pads are in good condition.

Axle Shaft: The axle shaft connects the transmission to the wheels. If there's damage or wear on the axle shaft, it can result in clicking noises. Inspect the axle shaft for any signs of damage.
Here are some steps you can take to diagnose and address the issue:

Visual Inspection: Jack up the vehicle again and inspect the components mentioned above. Look for any visible damage, loose parts, or signs of wear.

Test Drive: Take the car for a test drive and pay attention to when the clicking sound occurs. Does it happen during slow turns, sharp turns, or both? This information can help narrow down the cause.
Professional Inspection: If you're unable to identify the issue, consider taking the vehicle to a qualified mechanic. They can perform a thorough inspection, diagnose the problem.

1998 Dodge Stratus rubbing noise when turning. Sounds like rubber against metal. No popping noise.

It could be several things ....
Wheel bearings - jack the front driver side up. First ... just rotate the wheel ... you should hear NOTHING. Any noise menas there is probably a wheel bearing/hub issue. Now take hold of the tire in the 9am and 3pm positions. Try to push/pull from side to side ... if there is any "play" in the wheel the bearings are going.
Brake line interference - a lot of brake lines have a plastic sheath in the wheel well area ... check to see that the line/plastic sheath shows no wear when you have the wheel off...that might cause the issue.
Steering linkage - even though the upper control arms were recently replaced look at all the ball joints and grab hold of them and see if there is any play/movement.
Repeat on the passenger side..
Good luck on your troubleshooting

2005 trailblazer knocking sound front drivers side wheel when accelerating only

First check wheel bearing. Jack front end up lifting tires off ground and see if the wheel moves by pulling on the sidewall part of wheel from top and pushing bottom towards the car does this back and forth if there is play, wheel bearing could need replaced. Take tire off and check for loose brakes, loose calipers, loose dust shields , etc. everything except rotor should be tight.

I have a Baby Jogger City Select (manufactured 10/2010) and have an issue with the handbrake. When you pull the lever on the handle bar the cable, which runs to the rear axis, pulls out a little metal bar...

I did not have to disassemble at all. Thanks to your comments. I just took off the wheel with the stuck pin; gripped the pin with large pliers and a tight grip; pulled slightly outward while turning pin. Did this a couple times and the pin shot back into place!

Noise from offside rear wheel when turning, it sounds like a bearing but we don't think it is that, its not really a 'knocking' more of a scraping, grinding sound. Its not continious, seems to occur mainly...

Have the front brakes checked alot of times the brake pads wear down to the point that the wear warning indicator starts to rub on the rotor or disc and makes a scraping sound when turning, your front brake pads are due to be replaced, I am 80% sure.

Noise coming from my rear left wheel

first thing check if lugs are all tight and inspect the tire for foreign objects stuck in it.
if ok then jack the car up until the tire is off the ground then see if you can wobble the tire side to side if it moves or wobbles at all the bearings are bad. get them replaced immediately. this could lead to wheel loss and or possibly death from accident.
if by chance it isn't the bearings then spin the wheel and listen for noises.check the brakes pull up the emergency brake one click at a time and try to spin the wheel if it makes noise the brakes and or rotors are worn and need replacing. if it spins freely on one click of the handle then chances are you need to rep[lace the breaks. it should be difficult to turn or provide resistance.
if not try two clicks of the handle or pedal until you find resistance in spinning the wheel.
if you find resistance make sure it is constantly even all the way around if it gets easy then hard to turn then easy with every rotation then you have a warped rotor or hub.
replace as necessary.
good luck.
