Im getting a rattle/grinding sound from the rear passenger side, started as a brushing sound, then went to the other sound.

currently on FKs, i forget which ones(non-adjustable). im not too low in the back, and fronts are all the way down.


Could it be the wheel bearings? if so can i do it in my garage? i have triple squares and shit. just never replaced wheel hubs.

Sounds like you might've lost a wheel bearing. Better fix it soon before it gets more expensive. I've never done this service on the MKV before but I can only assume it's a pain and requires a hydraulic press. Maybe not as bad as a Subaru, but it's still a multi-link suspension.
