Strange sound when turning R3
I have brand new R3 only 1800km
When i am turning right or left (slowly 5-10kmh) strange sound
Strange sound comming to front whellls
Like a "guuuurr guuuur" is it normal?
Firstly i think reason is big wheel and thin profile tire!
Have any idea?

I think I vaguely know what you're talking about. I'll have check it out when I drive home tonight, but I think I hear a very faint whirring sound while turning in my R3, usually only when it's stationary though, but I'll pay attention at low speed and get back to you.

Are you sure it's coming from the front wheel well? Are you reversing? The sound could be coming from your rear differential, which is normal. The rear differential makes a rubbing sound when driven slowly and turning.

On the series 1 models some of the 18" wheels would click when making slow sharp turns. Mine did. It was a combo of the wheel flexing and the super rust properties of the wheel hubs. The solution... sand the rust off the hub and wheel, paint the hub, and torque the front wheel lugs to 108ft-lbs tq.

At last today i visit Mazda service
But in my city no one have RX8 series 1 or series 2
They check the car with me they lift the back they turn the rear wheel with hands in neuturel gear and we heard similar strange sound "guuurrr guuuurrr"
They call Mazda main office and tell the story
Mazda main office told this car have LIMITED-SLIP TYPE DIFFERENTIAL sound comes there
This is normal but it is hard to hear this sound, because it is too low
After service i check again again if i drive more than 10-15 km sound comes (when the car warm)
Mornings or car is not warm i cant hear any strange sound!
Please if someone understand please tell me is it normal or something wrong?

You said yourself that it is not the differential, so why are you bringing this up again?
