2002 Mitsubishi Montero Mitsubish Pajero LWB

Rubbing noise coming from the front whilst in 2WD. Have had front wheel bearings replaced, front discs checked & new brake pads installed.

Possible cause: After driving on sand, returned to sealed road with 4WD engaged, & by mistake diff lock engaged. After completeing the turn on a the sealed road, there was a loud bang from the front of the car. Car stopped & all transmission modes checked & all seems OK. After a few days of driving the car in 2WD there is a rubbing noise coming from the front which reduces when speed is reduced until there is a clunk sound when the car is stopped. Once the car is driven again, there is no noises until it randomely appears again. After having the bearings replaced, & discovered that the problem still exists, I shifted into 4WD whilst driving & the noise stops. This has been our fix whenever the noise returns whilst in 2WD.
