When going at hwy speeds and letting off the accelerator, loud whine from from the rear of the car. It just started yesterday. There is also at slow speeds a scraping type noise which would sound like a bad bearing in the rear. The rear end housing is leaking. Does it need to be serviced?

Thanks,

JB
