Strange Noise

[Robjess]

Hi everyone,

i have noticed a strange noise (rubbing) coming from the offside rear, it is intermittent but seems to come on when turning left and force is applied to the wheel i had a good look around and couldn't see anything touching the wheel - all looks good.

Any ideas?

Think this about front wheel, just did a quick search for you, might help tho.

Wheel bearing?

if it a metalic rubing/ brushing noise, sort of hollow it could just be some crap stuck between par/ disk.

Had a strange scraping rubbing noise a few weeks ago. Couldn't work out what it was and almost took Z to a mechanic, but got down for a good look underneath and found a small branch wedged underneath the rear crossbar. Phew!

Thought it must be a one off, but the same thing happened last week! :?

Had a stick stuck in mine too, but it could be the diff which will make a noise at low speed sounds and feels like something rubbing. It's normal but they can add an additive to the fluid that makes it go away.
