PLEASE HELP! Urgent
Hey guys,
I have a 1992 Mazda Familia Infini. And recently I have encountered a rumbling noise coming from the left rear while making hard right turns OR while turning right with weight in the back left seat. There is no doubt it is coming from the rear left. Mechanic thought it would be a wheel bearing, or something to do with the hub, so put a new hub on my car. But sadly the noise is still there...
The car is front wheel drive, and was wondering could this be a suspension or shock absorber problem?
I am 99% sure it isnt the tire rubbing on anything because both rear tires have the same or similar wear on them and there is no distinctive gouges or wear marks on the left tyre.
What else could I be looking at?

FIXED
So I took my car to a wheel alignment and suspension specialist. Turns out that a bent rear left control arm was causing rubbing on the inside of the Tyre in hard right turns, but yet the rub marks are barely visible.
All in all a good result.
No damage to the Tyre and a cheap and easy fix.
