Wheel Bearing has nothing to do with suspension
damage or the need to have it adjusted or rear
alignment done

SOURCE: grinding noise from rear. Brake pads? Bearing maybe?

Have the rear brakes inspected. These are real easy to change if they need to be. You need to look under the car just outside the differential. This is an inboard brake system so the wheels don't need to be removed.

Testimonial: "Thanks, I am going to have the rear brakes checked today."

Grinding noise left rear wheel

It's either the brakes or the wheel bearing. Remove the brake rotor and check for grooves or scoring then rotate the hub assembly. You'll find a problem with one of the two. A growl that changes with vehicle speed is usually a bearing whereas brakes usually change sound as you apply low to moderate brake pressure.12_24_2012_7_08_04_pm.png

How to change the rear Hub Assembly on a 2001 dodge caravan

To be honest if you did know who to do it in the first place I don't think it's safe that you should be doing it, a rear hub with abs sensors can have alot of problems ie if you damage the sensor and the abs kicks in while driving down the motorway doing 70 your back wheel locks up fish tailing you out of control and smashing you and other cars up, you don't fix the hub back onto the axle at the correct torque causing your hub to come loose and detach, you don't connect the brake lines up causing air in the system and the rear shoes/pads not to grip..... All faults that could and have happened to people because they thought they could do it on there own

Mazda mpv 2006 repack wheel bearing

There is a little difference between the front and rear. The days of packing wheel bearing is almost over. The front bearing you have to pull the hub and change to bearing. The rear wheel you have to change out the hub bearing and all. The front is a sealed bearing and not serviceable. Please rate my answer so I am rewarded points for it.

I have the same problem and it turned out the rear wheel bearing wad the culprit. Not a cheap fix (around 300.00) since you have to replace the whole assy.
