Something touching a halfshaft? (Half shaft = an axle between diff and rear hub)

Plastic stone guard stuff from inside rear wheel arch touching tyre?

Piece of the landscape between brake calipers and tyre/wheel?

Hey Jim,

How's things?
I would jack up the rear, put the car in neutral with the handbrake off and go spin some rear wheels. You might find a noisy bearing or at least get an idea of the area of concern.

Let us know how you go.
