Buzzing sound when wet - IWE problem?
Yesterday I noticed a buzzing sound that would increase as I sped up and vice versa. Nothing when still, only when moving. Later that evening I did not hear the sound again. Today, after a car wash, I hear the noise again. It sounds like a buzzing locust. My friend seems to think it's coming from the right front but not totally sure. Any ideas? I'll try to record it later.

First question: when the system is working correctly, in 2wd the CV shafts will NOT spin, correct?
Here is what's happening. I lifted both front wheels off the ground. Started the engine. I spin the passenger side wheel and the CV shaft spins with it. I spin the driver side wheel and the CV shaft does NOT spin with it. I put truck in 4wd. CV shafts now spin with both sides.
So does this pinpoint my problem to the passenger side wheel?
