Can you describe the sound? It could be a few things. Wheel bearing or strut or control arm...

Re: i have a problem with left rear wheel :(
This might be difficult with an obvious language barrier, but what does the noise sound like? Is it a grinding sound, errrrerrrrrrerrrrrrerrrrrrerrrrrerrrrr? A clunking sound, cackung-cackung-cackung-cackung? A popping sound, tack-tack-tack-tack-tack? Or a swishing sound, shhhhh-shhhhh-shhhhh (that last one might not translate well at all)?

Could be a bad axle. Check for a ripped rubber boot, but that's not always the cause of failure. When they wear out, play develops in the joint and when the wheel is resisting more, like from a turn, the power trying to go through the axle and the wheel's resistance to turning cause a fight within the free play space of the joint. The inside of the joint bangs alternately against either side of the worn space, making the popping sound.

Re: i have a problem with left rear wheel :(
Sounds like it's a wheel bearing going, but it might be something simple: does your car have rear disc brakes? If it does, then make sure the backing plate is at least 1 cm from the rotor surface. The rotor flexes when cornering, so even if the backing plate has a few mm clearance, it can still contact in turns and cause a scraping noise. You can bend the plate away with a screwdriver or anything you can fit in there. I've only seen this problem with the front brakes, but I can't see why it couldn't happen on the rear. If you have drum brakes, then never mind, it's probably a wheel bearing.

Re: i have a problem with left rear wheel :(
Rear brakes are campane brake.Likelihood left rear wheel rollers and wheel bearing will change.i hope this sound will be finish.My doubt was it can be another problem for example campane or shock absorber but i am sure now.
thank you
