To check a wheel bearing for excessive play, first lift the vehicle and secure it on jack stands. Next, grasp the wheel at the top and bottom, then try to rock it back and forth; any noticeable movement indicates potential bearing wear. Additionally, spin the wheel to listen for any grinding or roughness in the bearing, which can also signify damage. If either test reveals issues, the wheel bearing may need to be replaced.

What is the low dragging noise caused by with your 1997 Daewoo Lanos It only happens when you are braking mostly at low speeds?
It is usually a wheel bearing that does this, one or more of your wheel bearings is worn out. When you apply the brakes they set the wheel hub off balance and therefore the wheel drags because of the bearing being so worn. To check this take the wheel rim off and try and rock the wheel hub, if it feels loose or it makes sound, your bearing is worn and you would have to replace it, this is quite a difficult job if you don't have the right tools though. A worn wheel bearing can also put strain on your power steering system if it is a front wheel bearing that is worn.
