  1. Hi OpenRoad! Yes, would really appreciate any clues you can provide! answers below: Can you provide more info? Yes So it is a sound only and no vibrations? No noticeable vibrations out of the regular road feel…. So would say vibrations are to a minimum at all speeds sound yes, starts at 40, humming goes up as speed is up. its more of a (sound… wwwwaaaaaaaaaaaaa ) then (sound ….. wwaaaawwwaaawwwaaawwaaa ) at 80mph it continues to sound, different pitch or frequency but doesn’t lower volume the hum at 60 is more annoying or done-ier Does the sound change when under load (going up a hill) or no load (coast down a hill)? While coasting down a hill in nuetral? sound changes a bit when going left or right….. when I steer right it lowers volume a bit light load Our hills here are bridges, but going down on neutral the sound still is there. Does the sound change with light braking? No and I have no vibrations on steering wheel while breaking Any difference when cornering? Difference between left and right cornering? yes… to the right lowers volume a bit and to the left makes it just a bit louder, but not loud loud Did this sound just start suddenly or has it been quieter in the past and is now getting louder? it started suddenly. Can has been great, no sounds before Is the sound only tied to speed or is it engine rpm? Speed rpm is smooth How many miles on your vehicle? Just hit 110K thanks for reading OpenRoad!
  2. Hello group!need some help. 2012 NV 2500 4.0 from 0mph to about 35mph… no hum , don’t feel anything on steering wheel or any vibrations in the car… as soon as I approach 40MPH this hum appears…the faster I go, the louder it gets. FIRST DIAGNOSIS: wheel bearing changed them and sound changed slightly, different, at first I thought it was quieter, but no, it was different SECOND DIAGNOSIS: tires are bad, internally the have bumps on the pattern… so struts are bad and wheels are bad…so I changed both front tires… NOT the struts So…. Get on high way and as soon as I pass that 40MPH… sound is back….. can’t figure what it is …. can the struts cause the loud sound? what else can it be? would really appreciate your help

  4. Hello everyone! have a question, can’t seem to figure out why…. I have a 2016 NV 1500 and a 2012 NV 2500 standard roof in my workplace . They both have the 4.0 engine. 2016 has 60K mikes 2012 has 110K miles regular maintenance @ Nissan dealer question is MPG’s…. the 2016 1500 gets about 14…16…. MPG , reading off the vehicle computer 2012 2500 gets about 9… 11…. MPG, reading off the vehicle computer Based off a weeks use, same conditions I notice this also in the fuel gauge…. Again, i have been using these since new….. I’ve searched but haven’t been successful… can’t figure out why…. does anyone have an idea? Or know what it consumes more fuel? Should I do any particular maintenance item to help improve this? thanks in advance!
