Post subject: Weird noise from back wheel

I have an 02 Accord Coupe, and just recently noticed a weird noise from my back, drivers side wheel.

It sounds like a high pitched, metal on metal, grinding sound...usually only hear it at speeds of about 20+. It's pretty faint so far. It doesn't affect the driving any, but I just don't want it to turn into anything worse.

Any ideas?

You didn't mention what type of brakes you have nor your milage.

I'd inspect your brakes. Disc brakes have a little tab that is meant to
make noise when they are ready to be replaced. Drums make noise when
that is true, but often they have already ground down to the bare
metal.

It might be your wheel bearings. Jack the rear up and spin the wheel with
your hand. You should feel a resistance at one point while spinning the
wheel. That is a sign of a worn bearing. It's pretty easy to replace if
you have the right tools. Don't forget to chock the front wheels and
release the hand brake, before attempting this.

Good Luck!
