Post 2003 Highlander tire noise
My 2003 Highlander with Michelin XC LT4 tires started making what I thought was a tire noise about 3 weeks ago. At different speeds like from 35 to 40, 50 to 55 and 70 to 75 it would sound like the noise you get when you go from concrete to asphalt. I thought I had a bad belt on one of the front tires so yesterday I replaced all 4 with new Michelin XC LT4 tires.

It still makes the noise at those speeds. If I turn the wheel to the left at 35 mph the noise goes away. If I turn to the right it does not go away.

How can I tell if its a bearing or CV joint or what is causing it?
