dont know what happened when we replaced the struts and lowered it yesterday but ive got a bad "rub" now all the time and its especially felt under braking. its almost like a bad wheel bearing but the bearings were replaced within the last year. any ideas what it could be?

lowered mine Saturday and had the same noise. My dust shields around the rear rotors where pulled on during removal of the strut. After being bent out a bit they were rubbing the inside of the rotor and making a god-awful noise. I used a screw driver and pushed it back in a bit and problem solved

Good stuff, I did that last year following the guide on this site and it worked-out great. The A/C really doesn't need to be running all the time on defrost mode, in my experience you only need maybe 30 seconds of A/C every few minutes to get rid of condensation on cold, humid days.

Ugh, I've been inside all day, hopefully it dies down when I leave school tonight...

Anyway, my A/C has finally stopped working on fan speed 3 (I used to flicker last summer). When it gets nicer out I plan to fix that properly, I have an idea for a very simple circuit which will permanently fix the problem

got one front wheel in the air, put it in 1st, and listened. then repeated for other side. how i diagnosed the bad bearing in the first place when it really was bad. no noise from the front, its from the back. prob from that frozen caliper
