Terrible Noise From Rear Wheel - Help!
Any ideas what could be causing this? I知 putting very little pressure on the rear wheel.
2800 miles....this car is a joke.

Just a guess, but it could be a small rock stuck between the rotor and the backing plate.
They can make a huge amount of noise. Here's an example in this video.
Maybe try taking a screw driver and see if you can push on the backing plate behind the rotor gently. Maybe something will fall out.

Actually your car isn't even moving in the video. I smell a troll post.

Haha - I could see how you think I was "faking" it.
Hard to see in the video, but I am barely rocking the tire back and forth.
A rock stuck somewhere in the wheel area does seem like a valid possibility.....so crazy.
Heading to the dealer tomorrow!

Why can't you just take off the wheel and visually inspect it yourself instead of go to the dealer?

based on his past post, doesn't seem like he is trolling but ya, taking off the wheel to inspect is probably the quickest and easiest thing to do. You got all the tools right in the car to do that.

Bad things happen when people start yanking on hubs with wheels off the car, especially if the car is supported only by a jack. Bad things happen when people start yanking on damn near anything when the car is supported only by a jack.
ALWAYS USE JACK STANDS
Or let a shop with a lift handle it.
Having said that, I have freed lots of rocks from the gap between the rotor and splash shield ( backing plate ), and I've never had to pull a wheel to do it.
It just takes a decent sized screwdriver and a few firm thrusts. YMMV

This video saved me 3hrs of my life going to the dealer.
It was exactly this - a tiny pebble suck in between the dust guard and the rotor. Pushed on it in a few places and a tiny stone fell out.
So crazy to think that tiny stone could make such a loud awful noise. I thought my suspension was failing
THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Wow really, /sarcasm. You do realize you weren't rotating that wheel/tire in your video right? That's the only way you can sell the pebble was stuck in the dust shield story. You trying to rock you tire back and forth like your waking up a 6 year old will not produce that sound, ever. The amount of noise in your video that you claim came from the RDX does not match up to "barely moving" the tire back and forth period. You know it and I know it. But hey, I'm happy to hear you solved your issue, LOL.
Here is an image of my exact email correspondence with my local dealership.

I stand by what I said. Your video is fake. You cannot produce that amount of noise from the minimal movement you attempted. Period. Action and reaction. BTW, in your video you attempting to move your wheel and tire the way you did is how you can test ball joints, hubs or even tie rods only it takes considerable more pressure than what you used. You need need to have the weight of the car off of those components to test them by hand. the full weight of your RDX was on that tire and wheel. It didn't budge in your video. To produce long scraping sound would have taken rotating the tire and wheel while the RDX was on jack stands and actually having a pebble stuck between the rotor and dust shield.

Regardless I learned something today about rocks being stuck between guards and brakes thanks to OP and helpful members

This happens all the time . Another poor guy post a laundry list of issue and was immediately met with skeptism and labeled as a troll.
He didn't give up and continues with videos and follow ups. The real troll disappeared.

Glad you got it resolved. Did you perhaps upload the wrong video? The tire literally does not move in your clip. Giving you the benefit of the doubt but something is off the video or the sound.

The initial post was not very clear, the immediate mention that the vehicle "is a joke" and the video showed very little pointing to the issue is what create the doubt.
I am glad the OP was able to address the issue and all is well.
