So when I’m accelerating in my car there is a almost a scraping sound underneath the car more so like near the passenger side of the car. This just started but before this started my exhaust rattles as well, so it might be related I’m not sure though. The car listed above is an EX model coupe. I do know that the ball bearing boot is broken could be related I don’t know.

The short answer is yes to all of that. Here is a guide that will help with this:

This could also be a backing plate for the brakes rubbing on the rotor but if the CV axle boot is broken then that would make more sense.

Can you get a recording of this? That will hep us narrow this down so that we don't waste time with something that we can eliminate.

Normally a CV axle failing is a clicking noise but that could be a scraping as well.

This is why hearing it will help. Thanks
