Similar to another post about a 2013 of the same make and model. I tried looking for the active torque control coupling connector to the solenoid according to the wiring diagram provided in the aforementioned post that expert "KaseKenny" replied with for troubleshooting the differential. I couldn't find it in the place on my 2016 that the diagram showed it to be for the 2013 model. Does anyone know where I could find it to unplug and disengage the Intelligent AWD to troubleshoot mine? Thanks, I hope i'm being clear. Let me know of you have questions

Can I ask where the noise is coming from? Front or rear? If the front it sounds like the CV axles need to be replaced. Here is a generic guide to help you step by step with instructions in the diagrams below to show you how on your car:

In case the noise is coming from the rear of the vehicle I have included the electrical connector location and how to change out the "Active Torque Coupling Clutch". Check out the images (below). Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem so we can see what's going on.
