Tires and Wheels problem
2005 Kia Amanti 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

The car back right almost sounds like it is rubbing against something when driving. When you turn the wheel, the noise stops. I have been told it could be a wheel bearing. Does this kia have a hub assembly or wheel bearing (we know how to change a wheel bearing, but not assembly)

It sounds like a bearing problem. If it is the rear, it is a wheel bearing. Front would be a hub bearing.

Let me know if you have other questions.
