im not driving my xj due to a noise its making and am unsure where to look as i cant tell for the life of me where the sound is coming from, being inside the vehicle or out.
the noise is like a bad (or being destroyed) bearing whenever im on the gas. its the same kind of noise i had on my last truck before the wheel "detached" going down the road due to wheel bearing failure.
BUT, when i coast or brake there is no noise. i replaced the muffler thinking it was the baffles inside, as it was hit by a broken rear driveshaft, but the noise is still there. could it be the catalytic converter?
could it be an axle bearing even though the noise is inaudible when coasting? (the rear end oil does look to have some mud/water in it). maybe its something in the transfer case?
