Why is my BMW X5 making a loud grinding noise when turning?

I just bought a used BMW X5 and noticed that it makes a loud grinding noise whenever I turn a corner. It doesn't happen all the time, but when it does, it's really concerning. What could be causing this and how can I fix it?

It could be a problem with your steering system. Check the power steering pump, steering rack, and tie rods for any damage or wear and tear. If everything looks good, you may need to have your alignment checked.

Another possibility is that your wheel bearings are worn out. This can cause a grinding noise when turning, especially at lower speeds. You'll need to have the bearings replaced to fix this issue.

Have you checked your tires? Uneven tread wear can also cause a grinding noise when turning. Make sure your tires are properly inflated and have the tread depth checked. If necessary, have them rotated or replaced.
