If you are 100% positive you have an oil leak near a wheel stop driving it, it very likely could be brake fluid. Which wheel?

Wheres the noise coming from, and what do you mean a scrapy noise?

Yes, more definative details would be useful... narrow down where the noise is coming from, when does the noise start, on idle or driving, does the noise ever get worse, less or is it constant. when did it start, what were you doing or had just done when it started. define a scrappy noise... credit card on a table scrape of exhaust dragging along the ground etc...

But we will do our best to give you some possible solutions.

Hi!
took off the wheel and located the problem to be at the drive axe, it was grease all over the inside of my wheels.
So that explaine the noise i had.

Does it mean I should leave the car at home? til i get it fixed. ?
