1995 w124 280 scuffing sound at rear

[louisoliver]

My car has started to make a pulsed scuffing sound when I go round roundabouts it seems to be coming from the drivers side. Does anyone have an idea as to what it might be?

Is it at the front or rear?

 

[mercmonkey]

sounds like a possible wheel bearing

That's discs and pads on the way out I'd say.

A knackered bearing will give a deep low pitched hum when turning a corner.

Scuffing noise

Mudflap rubbing? Tyre tread separating? For this get it on a ramp to check & look at the inside tyre face very carefully. Wheel bearing needs nipping up?

Lot of possibles. If you can hear it it needs finding & fixing
