Grinding sound

i have honda civic 2001 with 191,000km. 2 weeks ago i hear this grinding sound in front of passenger side. when i accelerate, it makes grinding sound and it is even louder when i shift it to neutral (30-60 kmph), when i apply my brakes it doesnt make any grinding noise. At 100 kmph i don't really hear it, maybe because of my loud muffler. what might be causing this sound.... thanks

Re: Grinding sound

Does the noise progressively get louder, change in sounds (like the pitch) or seem to be constant with the tire speed? I would rotate that tire manually by hand and confirm that it is on that side and in the front end. Could still be something wrong with the brake system; possibly wheel bearing.

Re: Grinding sound

When was your last brake change? It could be the brakes.
