Driving my 300D today for the first time since I overhauled the vacuum pump, there is a new noise coming from the general area of the left (driver's side) front wheel when I make a right hand turn. It is a regular scraping sound, not really alarming but definitely audible. It varies with speed. Sort of a rasp-rasp-rasp sound, vaguely metallic. Does not occur driving straight ahead, or when turning left.
I know wheel bearings can make noise, but have always heard that described as more of a groan or rumble. This is just a scraping sound, like something is rubbing against the wheel though I can't see what it might be. I'll pop that wheel off tonight and see if perhaps a rock or twig is lodged in there somehow. Other ideas?
