quiet wobble sound coming from passenger-side rear wheel
There's a constant sound, a wobbly kind of sound, fairly quiet, coming from the area of the passenger-side rear wheel of my 2018 HR-V AWD. It is easiest to hear when moving at slow speeds with no ambient noise, 5-10 mph, in an empty parking lot, say, or a high-rise parking garage during quiet times; but once you hear it, and get to recognize what it sounds like, you can hear it at 25-35mph too when sitting in the driver's seat. Any faster than that and wind-noise drowns it out. Another sound, possibly related since it sounds like it's coming from the same area, is a clunk when I drive out of a gas-station that has a curb several inches higher than the street pavement, or when I go over a speed bump at around 15-20 mph. A bad shock absorber?
P.S. The sounds is a lot like the rumbly clunky sound on this video @1:35 from EricTheCarGuy about his 2004 Honda Element, a sound he attributes to worn stabilizer bar bushings, but I don't see a stabilizer bar on my HR-V.
