this is the exact same sound my car is now making, haven't been driving it lately due to the rear strut [fully collapsing i think] worse than what it was,, i wanted to move it into the street.

-Come to think of it the car didnt sound like the video when i first started it and sat for a bit

SO while going down my drive way i hear awful metal scraping cement sound that i know to well, was muffler scraping the street where it inclines to my driveway as i went down.. SO went backup put in park and started making that noise shortly after

smoke appears to be coming from back of engine, i know i have a oil and coolant leak.

this seems a good link for possible causes and how to fix?

-the smoke is light grey, and smells like burning rubber oddly.

The video in the link lead to a bearing on the serpentine belt being the cause ?

-AC was off and i never used it as it doesnt work

hi, the smoke could be oil burning when it touches hot exhaust pipes.to identify the a/c bearing, remove the serpintine belt and let idle for 5 minutes from cold start - if the sound goes away, its the a/c pulley, bearing. check it for play by hand when you remove the belt.

you wont have power steering or water pump flow with belt off so dont drive until you reinstall.

The AC clutch can scrape against the pulley with the AC off.
Best to fix the oil and coolant leaks. Oil dripping onto hot exhaust can become a fire.
Coolant leaks can lead to overheating.
It's relatively easy to replace the rear shocks.

When the car is idling, pull the oil cap off and see what happens, if it changes behavior or if the car runs differently.

i dunno if you saw the pick i showed, but the whole wheel house is rusted out where the strut goes into, i had a pic here somewhere, but i think its beyond repair nor will a wielder do it due to rust

btw i got a new SUV 2005 toyota highlander limited, people seem to recommend Toyota a lot?

I'm parting this car out if anyone reading would be interested in the engine ,parts, ICM,or 3 new 17" tires
