2010 Supersports whining noise

Hi everyone,

Recently picked up a 2010 Supersports and have noticed that when I reach speeds of 70mph+ it has a faint whining/humming noise. I can hear it under acceleration, deceleration, as well as if it is put into neutral. I believe it is coming from the rear of the car (rear diff?).

Tried to research some info but could not really come up with much. Anyone have any thoughts or experienced this?

Funny just had the same issue with my new to me 2010 Supersports. One day car was fine, the next drive (a week later) had the noise. Diagnosed as rear wheel bearing which is pretty common. A bit pricing when done through Bentley direct as the wheel bearing is about $1,000. I had my local guy handle it which I think I saved three or four hundred for the install. Pretty straight forward to change out. Will need alignment after.
