Hey pros,

Need help identify this noise. It only happens when i m turning with speed. It used to only happen when making a left but now both left/right are making noises.

I found a video that has the exact same noises. could it be a bad diff?

Sounds like a wheel bearing. Has it slowly been getting worst? You could only hear it when turning sharply at high speed, and now you're hearing it when turning the wheel only a bit, and at lower speeds? Maybe starting to hear it faintly when going straight?

Those are all classic wheel bearing symptoms.

its actually getting louder, before you only hear it accelerated turns, now even normal turns you can hear it. i know how wheel bearing sounds like tho but it just doesn't seem like like its wheel bearing to me. wheel bearing is more like a hum noise no?
this is more clunking/knocking.

What speed were you at in the video you posted?

thats not my video actually, but its the same sound/noise. i would say going more than 30km would hear, faster/sharper i go the louder it gets. lol

What you're describing sounds exactly like a front wheel bearing. Is the sound coming from the front or the rear?

it's coming form the rear. its louder when i turn right, i had my diff fluid flushed recently, that didn't help with the noise at all.
