It might be a brake problem. Under heavy braking, the car makes a humming (not grinding) noise that gets fairly loud. I have looked at the rotors and pads. They do look like candidates for replacement, but they pads aren't completely worn down so I don't think they are making the noise.The rotors are pretty thin and worn. The right CV boot is also torn and will need replacement. The only reason I thought it might be the bearing was because I had read about a clunking noise while backing up and turning. The bearing was loose and moved producing a clunking noise. The noise occurs without any braking applied. I am going to replace the boot and also do a brake job. Can I do any diagnostics to the CV joint and bearing while replacing the boot? Thanks for your help!
