Hi,
I have a 2011 Limited and it has developed a noise that sounds metallic and most notably from the front right. It sounds like a rub or metal on metal, almost a tin noise. Its not constant and most notably when slowing you can hear it. The bearings are good, CV's good, rotor cover/shield is not touching rotor. I'm at a loss right now. Changed trans oil, it was dark but not metallic. It definitely moves with the tire speed, i can guarantee that but i cant figure the darn thing out. Has anybody heard this? or had a similar issue?
 






If it’s a 4wd I’d suspect the ptu. Try and suck out some fluid to see what it looks like. Ptu is in front right of vehicle.
