Could be a wheel bearing- if front bearing- does the sound change when you slightly turn the wheel?
Might also be a tire. Belts sometimes can separate & the tire makes a noise. sHad any tires replaced?

or rotated the tires and noise appeared?
Have the tire shop ck the all the wheel bearings for you
RR likes to fail for some reason and noises transmit in strange directions in a car

it helps to list your car year-type S if so and current miles when asking for help
how long its been doing the current problem
any work done on it recently
thank you!, it can speed diagnosis by the group- some detail triggers a memory in a ziner and says- yes!- I had that and it cost xx to replace xyz

might be a cv/axle bearing too- the inner ones will act like that
outer bearing failure you usually hear click click click with wheels turned hard, at very low speed- as you start rolling

ck the cv rubber boots for grease trails = broken boot let grease out and grit in

get to the shop that does front end work-
that sounds like a major bearing prob you dont want failing at speed

Our TL needed a LF wheel bearing at ~ 130K miles. Same symptoms as yours.

bad alignment? tire noise is most noticeable around those speeds. if your previous tires didnt have much tread on them then you wouldnt get any noise. check for cupping, stepping in tread. or wheel bearings. :2cents:

Most likely wheel bearings. I had the same issue.

01tl4tl 02-14-2011 12:04 AM

the fun is finding which one- the sound travels and a front noise may be a rear bearing

kidduce 02-14-2011 06:41 PM

I tend to be seeing the front ones going first though.
