Yeti 170 is braking rear right wheel randomly

Hmm it kind off feels like it could be the bevel box reading what you wrote about rotation. No, I haven't heard any bad sounds of any sort until this Anyhow very interesting and probably not a 15 min job then... -

Regarding the smell I don´t think it was DPF, as it filled the whole cockpit and still had the smell a couple of hours later. -

1, no drops 2, Yes.. Just bought the car and thankfully they left 3 months of warranty, just had a shop replace the return diesel pipe last week, and they were super good about it. But regarding 2, I think the Haldex oil was changed in march as Multi-disc clutch oil 1L is stated on the latest service receipt. Would the bevel drive gearbox just impact one of the rear wheels? -

Hi, my car has began to act extremely weird and dangerously, when driving along in higher speeds, say above 50kph and releasing the throttle it suddenly brake the right rear wheel, however I do not think its the brakes, there´s a horrible sound, especially when going slow. When it began it didn't happen every time, although it has quickly gotten worse at parking speeds I have to apply throttle (its undriveble), if i release the throttle its not far off locking up the wheel on gravel, however when up to speed it works better. When I got home from a quick trip just now (2nd day since I started to notice this and it quickly got super bad). Smoke started coming out of the engine bay (temp was good). I would think brake/parking brake if it would´t be for the nasty sound (maybe caliper?) or wheel bearing that has catastrophically welded it self? But considering the smoke and where it came from I´d say driveshaft bearing, but that would have impacted both wheels accordingly right? The sound is metallic and inconsistent like it catches on to something and gets released), the smoke smells like burnt oil, really bad so probably hydraulic? Burnt brake pads does not smell that good either thought but the all the discs are cold. filtered-8188F6BD-8E96-4E19-923B-C2A5453ABA26 (1).mov
