Road noise - 2017 Subaru Outback

[VDCdriver]

@texases

Rear axle bearings are a common Subaru problem around 100,000 miles or so. I’d find a good Subaru independent mechanic and have them take a look.

Okay, but when the OP posted his question in October, 2018, he also told us that…

I only have 11k miles

I suggest having a reputable mechanic who works on a lot of Subaru’s look at it. Tell them what you’ve observed or demonstrate it on a ride with them. From what you’ve described it’s difficult to pinpoint a problem - it could be major or minor, but usually the sooner you fix something the less it will cost in the long run.

It is possible that the OP’s vehicle hasn’t yet exhausted its 3 yr/30k mile Bumper-to-Bumper Warranty, in which case he shouldn’t be taking it to an indy mechanic, but–in any event–I suspect that he has resolved (or accepted) this noise problem in the 20 months or so since he posted his question.
