E30 brake issue
-
You can also take a short low speed drive around the neighborhood, avoid using the brakes (sorry kids!) and use an IR thermometer to compare rotor temperatures to see the extent of the dragging
The remedy may end up being new caliper guide pins or just lubricating the ones that are in there
-
Lubed the guide pins this afternoon. We're guessing it's a real wheel bearing going out.
As opposed to a fake one
But for serious. Jack the car up and see if there's play?
-
If you plan on dropping it like its hot, toss in some new bushings.
The axle will still have to be removed
-
You can easily replace rear wheel bearings with everything on the car. Invest in a few tools at Harbor Freight to do it easily:

I'd rent the slide hammer from an auto store for free. Just put down a 100% returnable deposit and away you go
