This afternoon I noticed a rubbing sound emanating from the front n/s wheel
when I applied the brakes. When I opened the passenger window to hear better
I noticed that there was a continual noise, sort of a rubbing grating
metallic sound that got louder when I applied the brakes (or maybe applying
the brakes caused a separate additional sound?). Before I opened the window
to listen I could only hear the increased volume, not the steady state
sound.
I have had no chance to look at it this afternoon and I'm out mountain
biking most of tomorrow so it looks as if I'm going to have to wait till
Monday at the earliest before I can get the wheel off to have a look see.
I haven't been anywhere recently that could have resulted in mud or grit
trapped around the disc and as far as I know this noise started today, not
the last time I used which was Thursday evening.
I'm wondering if a wheel bearing about to give up would make that sort of
noise Or any other thoughts in advance of me getting the wheel off?
