My 2009 land rover lr2, has sounded very loud while driving on the highway. I thought it may have just been a tire issue that they were old and needed rotated or replaced. While my car was in the shop for an alarm system repair the dealership did a multipoint inspection. They said nothing was leaking or immediately wrong but I should get it back in for a more thorough inspection. I did and found my rear differential needs replaced.
