installed tokico blues, loud grinding noise
I just put in some used tokico HP struts (blues) and Tein s tech springs on my car, and now I'm hearing this loud grinding noise from the front passenger side when I turn the wheel in either direction. I recorded the noise from the inside of the car:

Has anyone heard this before? Any ideas? front passenger side is the only one with this problem, the others are perfectly silent. The mechanic said the strut was 'bent', I just want to make sure no one has run into this in before and that its not due to something else that is easier to fix/replace.
Any help is appreciated!

Thanks for the link, but I had send that video of the noise to someone who had suggested the exact same thing, that it was the bearing, but after hearing it he said it didn't sound like that was the problem.. I'll double check tomorrow., err later today that is

The ones I had were used. I took the car back to the mechanic to have him look over bolts, the strut mount and the bearing.. so I had no other option to try really... he was saying the part that goes into the strut mount was bent..
