Hi all.

The rear of the car was making a rotational scraping noise, lifted it up on a trolley jack and the passenger side rear wheel with brake disc wobbles if I shimmy the wheel side to side (wheel bolts are tight).

I left the handbrake off so was able to rotate the wheel and it sounded pretty ropey, clicking and scratching.

Any ideas? I am assuming at this point wheel bearing?

Sounds like wheel bearing failure to me.

Would say the same wheel bearing has collapsed and needs replacing quickly.
