For context, i recently purchased this slightly unloved 175k mile MY05 AP2. I just got the vtec solenoid and valve cover gasket replaced as well as the driver side rear wheel bearing. this was 2 days ago. The first shop said the diff was loud, then the drivetrain shop said it was fine but the wheel bearing sounded bad so I had another shop replace that and the seals.

I started hearing these sounds today (attached videos). The first video is at idle, you have to listen closely but it’s a higher pitched grindy/whiny sound coming from the rear driver side. The second video im going about 15 mph in 2nd, but the sound is more or less consistent. The only thing I will note that has happened since I got the car back, is the weather has gotten significantly colder and rainier (in florida) and the car has been daily driving in this conditions. Any help would be appreciated, im sick of going to one shop to get sent to another.

On another note, any good s2000 mechanics in Orlando/Central Florida
