    2006 Tacoma 4x4 makes rubbing noise and vibration when turning. Only happens when accelerating and turning left or right from a stop. Noise/vibration is way worse when in 4 wheel drive. One mechanic told me it was front left wheel bearing, but already replaced and noise persists. I also replace front right CV axle because I had a clicking noise coming from the right, but the clicking noise is now gone. Any ideas?

    Turns out the noise was coming from my rear differential. When I changed my differential fluid a few months ago I must not have put enough friction modifier in, because after I added another 4 oz of the friction modifier the noise totally when away.

    Good thing I tried this before the mechanic tore it apart!
