    Hey folks,

    My E46 has recently started to develop a slight whining noise somewhere from the rear of the car. Doesn't appear to affect the handling as such.

    Any ideas what it may be? Or if it is a big job to put right?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hard to know what it is from the description. Could be lots really. Wheel bearing, sticking handbrake, stuck caliper.... need more info. Can you see anything wrong? Does the wheel get hot after a drive? Does the noise change as your speed changes?
