Help identifying real wheel noise ?
Hi all
Mot time in 2 weeks so need to get this sorted.
When turning right I've got an on off scraping noise coming from the drivers rear wheel area.
The harder I turn in the louder it gets.
Sounds like the pad on the disc if I'm honest.... ?
Wheel bearing ??????
Just to add it only happens when I turn right so no load on drivers side
Cheers

My guess is rear brake back plates have corroded and swollen slightly. It will give a metal grinding noise, and more pronounced when going round corners. I had mine done on my widetrack a few weeks ago.

It can be a pig of a job. The long bolts at the bottom of the hub sieze, would recommend a good soak in tec-7 penetrating spray or similar to all threaded areas a few days before starting the job. Especially if you are getting a garage to do it for you.

After a drive, see if one rear brake disc is significantly hotter than the other - be careful, just a quick touch.
Also, more brake dust on one side? My OSR wheel had almost as much brake dust on it as a front wheel and was a good 3 or 4 times hotter than the NSR disc after a run.
Turned out to be my OSR inner pads and knackered rusty old discs with a fair old lip. Just changed rear discs and pads, problem solved.
My inner rear pads were a lot more worn than the outer ones. Handbrake is also now greatly improved.

Think I'm overdue a disc and pad replacement on the rear
