Loud humming 40-45 mph.
Not sure what section to put this in. But my truck is making an annoyingly loud humming and slight vibration at 40-45 mph during accelerateing and de-accelerating.? It very obnoxious. I'm not sure if its mAybe a wheel out of balance its just recently started this and now getting worse. Any help wud be nice and if this is the wrong section a mod to move

Re: Loud humming 40-45 mph.
It's a vibrating hum at that speed. Any ideas somebody?

Re: Loud humming 40-45 mph.
Bad bearings don't pop, they hum. The humming will become higher pitched the faster you go.
The vibrating sounds like your tire/s could be out of balance, or have broken belts. A shop will be able to tell you what the issue is.

dude, we have pot holes issues here, like deep and wide, but you guys have speed bumps everywhere on highways! Almost lost control of the truck a couple times in high traffic in NY, and i wasn't even speeding.
you should have seen the tech guy when he asked me about the missing weights lol

actually no, the mob owns every construction company out here, so they cheap out on materials (while charging more than anywhere in the world) and we have to patch up roads yearly. since the gov is in it, every investigation is halted and they keep doing business.
but you guys didn't have holes, it was like the road lifted and created small jumps, which was harder on my truck's suspension, and ripped off the weights.
in any case, i hope its nothing major for ya

Ohio and PA have some rough roads, but neither compare to parts of NY.
