So i get a vibration when my 08 SL Rogue is going 60mph.. Doesn't matter if gas is being applied or coasting.. Nothing at 55mph, nothing at 65mph.

Had 4 wheel alignment and a wheel balance... No better..

Anyone have any ideas before i bite the bullet and bring to a shop? Wheel bearings?? Heat shield? anyone?

Tires are pretty new ~10K on them....No steering wheel shake.. just a noise at 60..

I was thinking bearings. I had the rotors off when i did rear pads.. looked fine, cleaned them up and put them back on..
No vibration while breaking. Currently having a squeal when i'm in slow speed reverse.. going to replace rear rotors... If i were binding, i'd think that i'd feel it in breaking..

Just did alignment and balance.. front to back.. didn't fix the issue.. any heat shields down there that might resonate?

heat shields wont vibrate your car. so are you hearing just a noise, or are you vibrating???

I'd say i hear it more than a feel it.. Kinda similar to the noise when you drive over the edge of highway to wake u up (rumble strips) but not feeling it as much.. Can feel it a little, but not in steering. Noise exists when car is coasting.. e.g. 80mph, take foot off gas.. hear noise between 57-63mph.

Try releasing some of the air in the tires to lower the PSI, then try raising it and see if the noise goes away either way.

Could also just be something loose underneath that just happens to resonate at that speed.
