I'm hearing a thud thud thud noise which sounds like it's coming from
the rear drivers side wheel. It's a 2003 Honda Civic hatchback. Noise
increases in frequency with speed but dissappears as you speed up
towards 30mph. The tyre on that wheel was replaced recently due to a
pot hole puncturing the side wall of the last tyre. It did take quite
a knock when it went through the pot hole but everything looked ok
when I took the wheel off. Car seemed to struggle slightly when
pulling away this morning, like the handbrake was on.

I'll check the wheel nuts tonight but apart from that what should I be
looking for? Damaged disc or hub, siezed brakes?

Any suggestions welcome

A friend of mine had a sound from one corner of the car.  Turned out
that when he had the tires replaced, the idiot left a screwdriver inside
that one.
