gwhamilton@gmail.com Posted April 2, 2022 Report Share Posted April 2, 2022 (edited) Hi All, I'm new to this board. I have a 2013 edge. It just did struts and rear shocks last summer. I noticed a noise seeming to come from the rear before I did the shocks. When I turn into a parking spot I hear what seems like a tire scrubbing noise from the back. I cant determine where or what is causing this. A mechanic friend thinks it could be rear CV joints. I plan to use chassis ears on the back end and will try to isolate the noise. Could be the rear diff, wheel bearings or CV joints. Any other directions I could go? Edited April 3, 2022 by gwhamilton@gmail.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haz Posted April 3, 2022 Report Share Posted April 3, 2022 Our 2012 MKX FWD exhibited a low frequency noise at 20-45 mph, whether traveling straight or turning. I presumed it might be a bearing, but it didn't escalate to metallic sound, so I lived with it for a while. Decided to replace the original Michelin tires at around 85,000 miles, and the noise disappeared entirely. If you have not already, you might try swapping tires front-to-back to see if anything changes. Good luck! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enigma-2 Posted April 3, 2022 Report Share Posted April 3, 2022 I wonder if the Bendix parking brake may be dragging? Shoes could be frozen and touching or rubbing on the backing plate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
