Humming noise while driving

    Noticed in the last few weeks a humming noise while driving - 2015 Honda CR-V (AWD) with 100,000km

    I don't drive the car that often but on the new smooth section of the M7/N7 its very prevalent and my wife passed comment yesterday as to what it was

    Really only starts to get heard as you increase above 70kmh

    Wheel bearing possibly?

    Surely 100k is not wheel bearing territory failure? Out of warranty by a year so if it is I doubt Honda will cover it even though I have a full service history

    Was due to replace the tyres shortly as want new ones before the winter, would hardly be tyre related?

    Any thoughts?

    Thanks

    If you plan on changing the tyres I would definitely wait to see if this gets rid of the noise.
    Have come across a few cases of noise (sounding like wheel bearing etc ) which disappeared when tyres were replaced .

    Does the noise come and go when veering from left to right?
    We had a noisy rear axle that needed fresh oil and driving in a circle round and around many times,then the opposite way many times and changed the oil again no noise now and was a common thing from honda.

    Seems to be consistent
    Definitely on mway in straight lines
    Changing lanes from left to right and vice Verda doesn’t change

    Get into the back and see if noise is louder,as if it was front wheel bearing noise will come and go when veering left and right.
    Need to find out if from front or rear.
