Rear Diff. whine when on the throttle

[Anita]

Oh, I know my symptoms are diff than the OP's in that it whines on coasting, OFF the throttle for me. But the most relevant thread I could post this in is over a year old and closed. Service manual lists such a sound at around 55mph, throttle closed as "gear noise"

Many of us have experienced that whine off the throttle and found it was because one of our tires was low on air. Check your tires air pressure. Also, putting on a new tire amidst 3 older tires (even if they are the same size) can cause a whine. It sounds silly but it is the cheapest fix to look into...

After i lifting mine, i had a bit of a whine and a munted noise coming from the drive shaft.

i greased them up twice in a week, thanks to a nice tutorital on here made it very easy!.

and the noise was gone, and same with a small vibration.

been over a month and the slight vibration returned but no noise.

Still have my VX - Still has the whine. I've got 187,000 miles on it and have had a couple of sets of new tires to no avail. I live with it.

Turn the stereo up and the noise goes away.
