There are no CV's in the back. Ok, "NO" but only because you said please.
But there are no CV's back there.

Well, 55 is not as loud (IE, road noise, tire noise, wind noise) as 80.
Are there vibrations involved?
Shawn's top 10 vague sounds list:
1) CV joint (outer and inner.)
2) CV boots (outer and inner.)
3) wheel out of ballance
4) debris stuck to the tire
5) out of round tire
6) bent wheel
7) wheel bearing
8) bent axle
9) tie rods
10) loose body parts/pieces


>Ok what is it?


I dunno, whats it sound like?
