![]() In any event, inasmuch as the noise is so obvious, the origin would be quickly identified during an actual, on site noise diagnostic. It is possible for accessory drives and pulleys to make noises, too, and such could disappear at higher RPM, just as you are describing. Be sure it is really wheel related, though. If the source of the noise is not found there, obviously another rotating component is responsible and that means stuff like axles and the transmission. Really, the first thing to examine is the brake assembly (pads, caliper, pins in torque plate, rotor, dust cover) on the right side. It is also possible that the brake dust cover is contacting the rotor, because it was impacted and bent, but the noise should be present all the time if that is the case. Non-OEM pads sometimes have chunks of metal in them and if the caliper is sticky, at take-off (i.e., while still at low speed) the pad may be rubbing against the rotor until you get to a high enough speed that the pad finally retracts. ![]() The noise may be due to the brake pads (particularly if they are not OEM pads). ![]() If there were something in the way of foreign material (e.g., road debris) stuck, you’d probably hear the noise all the time. ![]()
