I have a noise that sounds like its coming from the right rear. Its a noise that sounds like a high pitch pulsating car alarm, only not so loud. It starts about 15 mph and continues till its drowned out by my exhaust noise. It doesn't get louder and doesn't change pitch. The pulsating doesn't seem to change speed much with mph. It still present with clutch in and coasting so I believe its in the rotating part of the wheel. CV's have been replaced on that side. The wheel bearing was slightly loose but has since been properly tightened. Could the bearing have been ruined by the looseness?

All opinions welcome (I'll throw them out if I don't like them. LOL).

Thanks.
