Rubbing noise is more pronounced when coasting. Replaced hub bearing last fall. Car was a little low on brake fluid. Filled it to max line and the sound started. Is this as simple as too much brake fluid and the pads are producing a lot of friction on the rotor?

This turned out to be the last thing I would have thought. Ended up taking the car for repair. Turns out it was the driver side hub bearing (again). This is the same bearing that was replaced last winter (less than 6 months). I guess if there is ever a benefit for taking a car in, it would be warranties on parts and labor.
