Wierd metal scraping noise front end.
1980 911sc- Hi, just wondering before i take into shop to get look at and fixed.Maybe i can do myself. It started out very light few 30 weeks back but now is very noticlable.Its sounds like its coming from the front rightside end. Like something coming lose and wearing out.I had new turbo ties installed 5months ago and ask make sure everything is safe which is was tell now.Could it be that wheel bearings are worn out on that side? And would this be easy to fix myself?or some other rotating device. i can really hear it good when i roll down the hill engine off and it sounds up with speed gets faster and faster, slows down as slow down. almost click-a-dee noise too with the car speed. thxs.

A rear wheel bearing can make a noise like that and sound like it's coming from the front.
