I’m hear a sound from the rear at 50+ mph, esp on flat but not newly asphalted roads.
I’m trying to decide whether it’s the rear wheel bearing or the CV Any tips on how to pinpoint the problem ? Can the source be I pointed by running the car on a lift ? |

Jim,
Not easily. Mine was groaning for quite a while before I replaced it. You should be able to get it up to about 50 and take it out of gear and listen with the windows rolled down to isolate it. |
