So after beating the hell out of my max one weekend, I starting hearing a noise which sounds like something is dragging on the asphalt while I'm driving. I immediately got out and checked to see if my exhaust unbolted but there was nothing. From a couple of days of driving and hearing it, it sounds like it's coming from the engine bay. Anyone know what this could be? It's not constant though. It mostly happened tonight when I was accelerating around 35 and 40.

 

Maybe a front wheel bearing

 

It could be Metal Scraping when you are Driving. lol

 

Check your brakes, it may be the low pad warning tab telling you something.
Also check the rotor's dust shield, make sure it's not hitting the back of the rotor.

 

Agree with NJ,

brakes pad low

 

I would def. check the dust shield. Gravel, etc. can get in there and make some noise. My car made some pretty horrible noises on occasion when I bought it. I had some friends listen as I drove by and I determined what wheel the sound was coming from. I took the tire off and bent the shroud just a little bit and haven't heard anything again for two years.

 

I agree dust sheilds or brakes.

 

Check your splash shields up front as well.

 

i had the same sound ended up being wheel bearing

 

hmm ok I'll have to take her to shop tomorrow but it doesn't seem like it could be anything too expensive... at least I hope not haha just got laid off from my job because I wasn't kept as part time after seasonal so I have some money to hold me over until I get my job back or find something new.
