    07 tacoma. The faster I drive, the more intense a whirring noise gets. However, if I'm turning left, it goes away. When I straighten out or turn right its there. I can feel vibrations under my feet as I drive. It's an in and out sound where the volume increases and decreases as I drive, until about 70mph where it becomes constant.

    Thoughts?

    If bearing, why would it stop when turning? Shouldn't it sound worse?

    Nitto Terra grapplers. Just had rotated, noise stays to front left of truck.

    It's a wheel bearing, now you got to pinpoint which side it's coming from

    I was wondering if you ever figured out what the issue is, as I have the same problem....seemed to become a problem, or more noticeable, after i changed the fluid in the front diff and transfer case.
