Transmission filter problems?

My Terrazza started making a grinding noise from the left front tire. Almost like something is rubbing against it. Could something have shaken loose inside the transmission? It gets louder upon acceleration and stops around 5 mph. It does not happen so much when the wheel is turned to the right or when making right hand turns. I can't find anything rubbing against the tire but that is what itsounds like. Any ideas?

Check to make sure the backing plate on the front rotor isn't rubbing against the rotor.
