Hoping some of you can chime in. I have a 2011 qx56 with the 22's and I am getting a low frequency noise from the rear end between 65 and 75 mph. It is definitely a rotational noise and I can't figure it out. I am also becoming annoyed with the thump heard while driving over cracks in the road - sounds like my subwoofers are pumping bass when I hit bumps. I notice the same sound when I am on the highway at 65-75 but it is a constant. I don't think it is a wheel bearing - all are tight. I know the interior is like a resonation chamber since they are built so tight and trying to figure out how to quiet this down. I drive with my windows down most of the time, which masks the sound but now the weather is turning and I will be unable to do that in the winter.
I put a machinist's dial on the driveshaft and the rotational difference is .002 so it is not a bad driveshaft. U joints are also tight.
Here are my thoughts:
- rubber shock mounts
- differential mounts
- bad shocks?
