So I'm curious about possibly identifying and pinpointing this noise I'm getting coming from the front right side of my car. Basically It sounds like there like there is a chain or a small chain dragging on the ground when I'm driving and its only noticeable when I have the passenger side window down. Nothing loud or obnoxious yet and I'm experiencing no pulling or anything of that likelihood. Had a respectable mech check out my front right side wheel bearing only to find that its alright.

So the big question is, think it could be the brake disc/caliper or rotors? Or could it possibly just be the wheel bearing just being noisy to be noisy? So far I'm not worried over it all that much, not until it starts getting obnoxiously loud that is wink.gif

check if your brake pistons are stuck.

I'm going to take the tire off tomorrow sometime if I get time and check to see if all the bolts etc are nice and tight. Are the brake pistons visible from just pulling the tire off or is there more involved into seeing them? Never really checked into this stuff before let alone taking a tire off myself. ( Except when I got a flat awhile back mad.gif ) Lol
