...So before I bought my TL I did the necessary inspections, I got the safety/e-test everything done. I even drove it around the city for a day and had my friend check it out!

Day after I pick it up and drive it a good 150km's in two days, I notice a rattle coming from the passenger front side wheel. It sounds like someone is rolling an old rusty can around with a nail in it, round and round and round. It only happens as I speed up, then brake in 2nd gear (roughly).

The sound is only clear (and here's where it gets really clear) when I am near a curb on the right side, and the sound can bounce off the curb and provide clarity.

At first I thought it was the brakes (they're about 60% worn and need to replaced. Tires are at 6's and need to be replaced soon as well). But then it is only happening (and getting worse) when I speed up, and slowly goes away as the tires spin less (turns, stop signs, etc).

Anyway... any advice would be helpful. I'm such a car noob and I'll be taking it to my friend soon but any experience on this would be a greatful addition to my discussion with my mechanic. Thanks!

 

Actually after doing a search this is almost exactly what is happening: https://acurazine.com/forums/2g-rl-2005-2012-76/squeal-shhh-sound-while-driving-after-five-minutes-784438/

Except that's a different car... similar parts somewhere down there?

 

could be bearing or a hundred things
could be the tires- another member had a terrible unfindable noise-
after admitting it was in need of tires...
then guess what happened when new tires finally installed!!!

If you are not a car person have a pro look at it

avoid big name chain stores as they have to make xxxx dollars per day and will ~overdiagnose~ to make the quota
Im certain if we replace allllllllllll these parts,,, it will fix that noise Sir~
