Right wheel noise SolvedSolved

Chevrolet Optra 2007  32000 miles
For more than a year, my vehicle has had a metalic noise coming from the front right wheel. It started when I took it to be cleaned on its bottom part with a special lubricator. I've already changed the shock absorbers and rods but nothing changed. The noise appears occasionally, when driving along unstable roads, going through a hole, turning or even when simply moving the vehicle.

The same happened to my Optra and it was because a rock was inside the disc cylinder. I had to remove the caliper so as to take it out with a hook.

I have been told that I need to clean and grease the bottom part because it is quite probable the problem is a dry tire.
