I was once again test driving my car and while cruising along at 30~40 mph I heard a loud non continuous scraping noise; almost like a tire rubbing against a curb. I stopped to inspect and saw nothing. Everything was clean. No rub marks.
I pushed down on the suspension a few times and that seemed to help so I could limp home, but the noise started to get worse as I drove more. Probably drove a mile to get home. Looking for some guidance cause a have no idea. |

Take the wheel off and inspect more closely. Look for rub marks on tire. Could be a wheel bearing, shot trailing arm bushings. With weight off the wheel see if you have top to bottom play and/or side to side. |
