So tonight on my way home I noticed a strange scraping/rubbing noise from either the front or rear driver wheel. It would come and go and get faster with speed. It didn't sound like brakes rubbing. Considering it could be the wheel bearing? Does it come and go or wouldn't it be a steady noise? Any ideas or suggestions welcome.

On another note. I've noticed lately that anytime.I get any bounce out of the car it squeaks. Which bushings need to be replaced all around?

The scraping could be anything including a dust shield or a fender liner that fell out of its position. Jack up the car and take a look. Shake each wheel and see if it moves..indicating a bad bearing or component.

The squeaking is most likely your front lower ball joint.

A wheel bearing will generate a roaring sound, which will increase, as you speed up.
The sound may lessen, as you (slightly) turn the steering wheel, when changing lanes.

For the scraping my vote is dust shield rubbing on the brake rotor. If so just bend it out of the way.

The noise comes and goes. I'll Jack the car up and pull the front wheels off and have a look.
