Just bought a new civic yesterday and having some strange noises, i was aware of before i bought but i assume its nothing major, to good of a deal to pass up on. Car is bone stock bought from original owner and it will always remain stock.


Right rear brake shoe was locked up, this i knew as i test drove so before i bought i took tire off and adjusted brake, wheel spin was fine after, driving home still heard some roaring noise... pretty sure its the rear wheel bearings? tires look good. and if it is bearings can you leave the shoes on while u replace? i plan on doing both sides


Next noise, there is a suction type noise ( kinda of sounds like a aftermarket intake would) around the belt area ? Any ideas?

thanks.
