Bad wheel bearing already?

[smurfs_of_war]

15000km, get a scraping noise when turning right when the vehicle is cold, after I have been driving a bit the noise disappears. Checked for things bound up in the axles or brakes- nothing. No visible drag marks on the rotors either. I don't have any play in the wheels. The noise doesn't change when applying the brakes.

Just asking for opinions. Never had a wheel bearing be intermittent like this. Usually the noise is pretty constant.

Trying to remember, but there was a situation with the wheel well liner on the front that caused rubbing when turning. It was caused by a molded bump in the liner that accommodates a connector right behind it.

Don't remember which side but it is something you can look for.

Does it appear to be coming from the passenger side or driver side? Do you have the air suspension?

Drivers side. Turned out to be a hub assembly gone south. Replaced under warranty, good as new
