Hi,
It could be a hub bearing, joint issue, or even a differential issue. To eliminate the differential itself, see if the same thing happens with the opposite side.
Next, when driving the vehicle, do you notice any noise such as a humming sound that changes with speed or turns?
When you turn it by hand, can you tell if the noise is coming from near the brake rotor or if it seems to come from the differential area? Also, is the noise loud enough to record and upload for me to hear?
One last question. Have you scanned the computer to see if there are any trouble codes present? These vehicles have a differential oil pressure/temp sensor, an on demand
coupling oil pump, and an electronic module. If there are issues related to any of those, it should set a code.
Here is a link that explains how this type of scan will need to be done:

Let me know.
