check the wheel bearings
it indicates that the hub is moving sideways on the axle allowing the side of the shoe to contact the inside side of the drum thereby making the noise
You likely ruined an axle bearing. Very serious.
It is also possible that you damaged brake components. Equally serious.
Have the car TOWED (do not drive it) to a garage for inspection.
Most likely causes:
Front wheel hubs need replaced (do both at one time)
Front rotors warped or worn (change rotors and pads both wheels together)
The noise from the brakes dragging or the wheel bearings humming gets picked up by the abs sensors in the hubs before you can hear them. A few hundred miles later, the problem will get worse enough to hear while driving. Wheel hub replacement best done on a lift with an enormous impact wrench.
if you replaced all the brake parts I would check your hub bearings and cv axels if the noise is coming from front if the noise is in the rear check your e brake shoes located inside of the rear brake rotors if u have disc rear brakes or your rear brake bearings .. hope this helps
There are a couple of things to cause metallic sounds when turning. First thing, is if it's a clicking sound when you turn, then you have a cv joint going bad. It's usually more prominent when moving in reverse, however it can happen just as well while moving forewards. Secondly, if it's more of a grinding or scraping noise, we have a couple of options. The sound could be coming from the brakes, if they're worn or have grit stuck in them, or it could be bad bearings in the front wheel hub. The wheel hub has a tendency to making a whining noise when driving; usually most easily heard when driving past buildings. They can also allow the tire/wheel to present the appearance of leaning when looking at it. If bad enough, it can even rub on the brake caliper, or cause the disc brake rotor to wear out the brake pads prematurely. So, to recap:
Check:
CV joints, if a clicking sound
brakes or wheel hub bearings if grinding or whining sound.
Rear wheel hub(s) will cause the AWD light to come on and sometimes off. After awhile that light will just stay on until you get the rear wheel hub replaced. You can either have a dealer do it for approx $500.00 or you can get the part at AutoZone for $129.00 and do it yourself. This will turn off the AWD light and also quiet the rear noise you hear.
The bearings should be inside the drum assembly.The brakes do not have to come off. The bearings may have to be pressed out if they are sealed type bearings.
whoever did the rear brakes either did not replace the hardware kit and something came lose or something just came loose. either way has to come apart repair whats broken. did you replace the drums.
