Help, Right rear making noise!
Got in my car yesterday started to drive off slowly and heard this metallic grinding noise. I thought oh **** my brakes are sticking ( they have plenty of life). I applied the brakes and it quit. Well this morning I am hearing a low level whine or hum especially at 45-50mph. Could it be a wheel bearing or axle??? Thanks in advance.

My mechanic informed me that I need rear brakes and the rotors resurfaced. He said they are about shot (pads). Still weird as to why I was hearing this grinding noise when the brakes were "not" applied. It was only late yesterday that the brakes made noise. I was guessing the calipers were rubbing?

Perhaps a retainer clip from the brake assembly was not clipped in right, thus sticking out to the wheel spokes and making a grinding noise until the brakes are applied. That's just my guess, hope you get it resolved soon. Are you planning on sticking with a new set of OEM brake pads or an aftermarket brand?
Funny I think I am hearing a new sound now and it sounds like metal tingling or that metal bouncing off metal sound. Does not sound serious but I can hear it only if I have windows down at slow speed.
