Having a weird issue on a 2015. Rubbing noise coming from front driver side. It’s rotational and happens at low speed and disappears after 10 mph. My Cobb did show large negative corrections and OAR adjustment on my way home. Drove it 30 minutes later with no issues or noise.

Put in on jacks, wheel bearings appear good, cv axle appears fine? No broken boots, but a tiny bit of play on driver side (probably normal). Video with sound below, any ideas?

Play on driver side what? I want to say that sounds like the tread of the tire rubbing against something but I would think that the tire would be rotating faster than what I'm hearing, based on how the background scenery is progressing.

how many miles are on the car? i had a wheel bearing go in a toyota that only made sounds when turning left. there was zero play, and raising the car and doing the checks you mentioned it tested good. I had a Miata wheel bearing go and there was zero play and only a noise that was drowned out by road noise above 10 mph. both cars were higher miles.

i would agree that sound is rotational, but it may not be the wheel. this could be a bad output shaft bearing or something inside the transmission. what gear and rpm was this clip taken at?
