I own a 2013 Ram 1500 V8 4.7L Recently I had to replace CV and axle on Front L side. Technician at body shop told me that the differential fluid had been low after I got it changed at Grease Monkey ( ~ bad decision) and I also had them do an inspection and fluid exchange. I picked up the truck and immediately noticed a whirring sound coming from the front end. I don't know if its coming from one side or the other. Seems to be constant at any speed over 10mph. I spent a lot of money getting the axle fixed and I do not want to go thru that again all in the same week. Can anyone give me some advice on what to check myself? I don't have any clunking sound or metal grinding but it does concern me. I am thinking it might be the carrier bearings, and/or wheel bearings but reading other posts doesn't seem to fit the description of my issue. I have 64,000 miles on the drivetrain and recently expired warranty. Any info or insights would be highly appreciated. Thanks!
