it makes a sound when out of gear tho yea?

i still think CV joint, im gonna get russ to look at the video

Ye even coasting it makes that noise

Don't sound like a cv joint to me! Sounds like a rubbing. A cv is more metallic on an outer, inners usually are felt as a rumble.  How longs it been happening? What suspension do you have?

have you checked the wheel bearings mine broke up on my mk4 turbo an wasnt to far away from that noise

[tshirt2k]

Obvious question. But are your wheel bolts tight? I see wheels have been added recently.

[benvictors]

Ye checked for rubbing, wheel bolt tightness etc etc, started about 4 days ago and has gradually got worse, my initial thought was wheel bearing but there is no play in the wheel and doesnt sound like the normal wheel bearing sound, the sound almost goes away on hard right.

What did you do 4 days ago? Sounds like something simple dont sound cv or bearing related. It's like a creak but sounds rubbery as the speed gets up. You tried changing wheels to eliminate those. Possible high offset problem?? Hard to tell from the vid.
