So What does a BAD rear wheel bearing sound like???
I am trying to track down a noise in my car...thought for sure in rear diff, now not sure. I get a growly/whine at 40 to 60mph. Will not change as i turn car sharply left to right...but does go away if car unloads over a "rise" in the road. I though bearings would go silent as I turn to unload the bad side. Maybe Both making noise???

At first it sounds like "did i hear something" "did you hear that" then it sounds like "i
defintely heard something, yep i heard it too" to "holy ****, that doesn't sound good at all" "damn, what the hell was that"

I've had two go bad and both times it sounded like
the hum from an electric generator, or an electric bar-heater. A metallic medium-low-pitched buzz, and not particularly loud. Mine weren't affected by cornering.
