My 2000 Sport has developed a grinding noise, and I can't figure out where it is coming from. It happens at speeds as low as 10-15 MPH... and sounds pretty bad. I thought it was the rear diff at first, so I went ahead and changed the fluids (full synthetic, to the tune of $80). The grinding sound did not go away, and now my ABS light came on. Thanks to this forum, I ohm'd the rear sensor, and found it to be bad. I replaced, and all is good there.
The next component I suspected was bearings. I tried the swerving trick, and it doesn't change the noise at all. So, I'm ruling our bearings, I guess.
Does anybody have an idea where I should look next??? This noise seemed to have started a day or so after driving through some flooded roads.
