hey, there is a weird sound comming from the gf's 94 canadian gts, it is a revolutional sound, and its comming from the left rear wheel. If I grab onto the wheel and spin it back and fourth occasionally it will seem to lock up and stop but it seems like only when i spin it back forward. Now it seems to be making a thumping sound which gets faster as you drive faster. Is it possible the ebrake is sticking randomly? or does it sound more like a wheel bearing? it only does it from the drivers rear.

Everyone else I talked to has never heard a wheel bearing thump either, So thumbs up to me for figuring it out I guess lol. |

I was referring more to the weird "revolutional sound" you described in your original post.
