I was wondering if anyone can help me. When first driving 2007 Toyota Rav4 it seems to be ok, but after about 2 minutes of driving, there is a loud grinding noise,and sounds as if something is being dragged under the vehicle. It gets worse on turns, and grinding is very loud. Any thought would be apreciated.

I appreciate the help, but I dont believe its the wheel bearings. The grinding is very loud, almost like gears are grinding, and metal is being dragged under the car. If the car sits for a while, the noise goes away, and returns after the car is driven after a few minutes.

Put the vehicle up on jack stands and have a helper put the vehicle in gear.
Then try and find the noise.Thank you College man for your help.Sorry it took so long for me to get back here. I just thought I would let you know and also to help others who may have this problem. It turned out to be the transfer case.
