I know this has been addressed elsewhere a number of times but with no resolution. I've been getting this mechanical whining noise, quite low frequency, in my car for a while now. It comes on at 40mph and rises a little with more speed, and drones away from there. It's not linked to the engine as it's not consistent with revs, it's not the gearbox or clutch as far as I can tell as doesn't go away when they're disengaged.
It's not the tyres or tracking as I've just had them done and they would be more of a roar anyway.
The garage has checked the wheel bearings and said they're sound.
It's a quattro; could it be the drive shaft? Does it need regular regreasing?
