Default I am so tired of this undefinable road noise

I have been haunting this noise since i bought the car . Let me hope somebody have a solution . My car sounds like it has a grinding noise when its rolling ,its actually producing a hollow sounds ,similiar to a bad bearing . Anyways I replace both bearing , both rotors and pads. I replaced the set of wheel . The noise is a rumble at 20 mph and then it change to a grinding noise while under 10 mph while coming to a stop. I can hear every bump on the road if its bumpy . The noise is a faint hollow noise . Help me !!!!@

Have you been able to narrow it down to front / back left or right? I'm assuming it's the front.

Your post reminded me of the funny AAMCO commercial.

My advice would be to take it to a Lexus dealer to diagnose ASAP. Most diagnoses do not cost much and some are even free. Avoid additional damage to your investment by taking action soon!!
