    Default Another possible repair. Back left wheel area

    Grinding noise coming fro the back left wheel area. I had a flat, rolled it into a shop near my work and I had them check out this grinding noise that seems to be getting louder but no big deal. The place said the rear brake drum lip can rub on the protective plate behind it. Sometimes rust builds up and the two rub together. I was watching them and they showed me the inside lip of the rear drum and it has rust on it that the brakes did not rub off. So it could be that!!!!

    For no charge they grinded off some of the rust but it did not fix the problem. Although I have no flat tire anymore hahaha. I paid 12 bucks for the flat and nothing for the work they did. They even adjust my rear brakes for me real quick and they work much better.

    I'm worried it's a bad bearing. No leaking fluid, no drips on the cement. But I think I can have grinding without leaks since the seal could still be good. It doesn't grind going around a turn any more than driving down the street.

    Your thoughts.

    I'm taking it to a place I trust in the next few days.

    Do the repairs never end.

    In the last twelve months I've done.
    Rear ring and pinion
    radiator
    muffler
    evap coil
    heater coil
    compressor for the AC
    hmmm lets see. Jesus!!!!!!

    Can I borrow some money. Do the repairs end?
