Grinding noise at the rear end
I have a 08 Xb stick I noticed today at low speed 5-15 mph I get a intermittent grinding noise. The Xb is lowered , dual exhaust etc, etc, I took my mechanic for a drive got all about 5' and he heard it. We put it on the lift spun the front and rear wheels no noise. Checked the rear breaks all is good. My thoughts are wheel bearings but I don't want to spend $$$$ chasing a problem. The Xb has 154,456 miles on it. Any ideas?

2" drop in the rear 1" in the front , im leaning towards the wheel bearings seems like the logical reason and i thought about a sticking caliper but the pads are worn the same on both sides.

My rear wheel bearings were both completely toasted at 76,5xx miles. I had been hearing noise for a little while, but waited until I needed to take the xB in for another warranty issue as well. Thank goodness for the Toyota ExtraCare extended service agreement!
