I have two noises coming from my rear end, one is noticible and it sounds like a whinning noise, not a whistle.

The other is when someone is sitting in the right side back seat, there is a grinding sound?

Hi there,

Thank you for the donation,

With the whinning noise in the rear, is it constant with road speed, if so I would be getting the wheel bearings checked, and with the other noise, it sound like a suspension problem, with the extra weight there may be an issue with a shocker or suspension bush, I would get these inspected by a qualified mechanic.
