    Hello All,
    I have an issue. After I recently rotated tires and I notice a noise that I think is either a bearing or half-axle.
    Car is 2016 V. had 120K when I got it, now at 275K. My 175K is 95% highway. Had MAJOR service about 30K back.

    I first thought maybe it was tire noise w/different tires but its gotten worse. It has low "howl" that gets considerably louder when I begin a left turn then quiets down as the car straightens. I've had half-axles go out before and they caused a clicking noise in turns. This is just a louder howl in the turn.

    I'm thinking bearings but wondering if I should look at anything else before digging in.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks
