I dont know what its like from the outside but i can hear a whiny grinding noise from the rear, and i can feel it through the car Sad

When i'm slowing down it sounds like a jet powering down its engines.
So what do you think???
Diff
Bearings
Prop
Or something else Sad

It's aways hard to tell for sure whats wrong when all you have is a noise, does my head in that sort of thing.
