wheel bearing
when i drive like my moms 97 avalon. i gas then release and it rolls smooth
but on the TL when i do that. i can feel it so down so much, like drop rapidly in MPH but on the avalon the MPH drops VERY gradually
do i need to do something or is this normal? wheel bearing?

I'm dealing with a bad wheel bearing right now. If there is no abnormal humming then that is not your problem. The TL is actually really good at engine braking in certain gears when on full auto. Are you driving in regular automatic or sport shifting when this happens to you?

oh ok, just hoped it wasnt just me
also, could you like grease the axles or something like that? clean them so they are smoother.

Isn't that the grade logic kicking in to maximize engine braking? That's what I always thought when my car slows down after letting off the gas, especially on off ramps.
