Grinding/rattling noise from wheels

[S.S.R..]

Sounds like Car Aids. My condolences.

Hello sweet hell that is the Metro

Hit a fairly nasty pothole in Scotland the other day.

On the way back down an occasional grinding noise started coming from one of the wheels on the passenger side. On and off, but it appeared again this morning which is the first time I’ve driven it since Saturday. Brakes are functioning fine but the steering wheel seems to have more play in it when steering left than right.

Likely to be a wheel bearings issue? Getting it in to a mechanic first thing anyway as it doesn’t sound very nice.

Had something similar turned out to be a smallish stone caught on a brake disc.

Perfectly plausible. The play in the steering is the worry.

Gan to see Big Duke AKA Joey Fab - his missus has a spare tyre.

Was it a fairly high pitched sound sometimes?

Good chance the alloy is also buckled?
