Hoping you folks can help

So, my discovery 3 has recently been making a sort of squeaky dull bearing noise whilst driving. Takes 5 or 10 mins to start making the noise then gets quite loud. It’s gets faster as the vehicle gets faster, and slows down obviously when the vehicle slows down. I’ve just had the prop shaft changed today as my local garage (who I trust but aren’t specifically a landy garage) said it was a prop shaft bearing and the prop shaft was knackered. The landrover specialist I’ve used a few times before (ollie at inside out 4x4) said the oil was low in the diff and he topped it up when it was in for bushes and compressor a little while back. (I didn’t take it to him this time as I need it back sooner than he can get it done) I have a video so will try to upload it. It sounds like a rotational noise but I’m at he end of me tether. Any help would be great. Thanks. I’m nick by the way

Take it back to garage and ask what bearings a propshaft has...they have uj's...

The D3 has a 2 piece propshaft, which has a centre bearing supported in a rubber mount. This rubber mount collapses over time, causing the bearing to run out of alignment and make a noise.

Sounds like the front diff bearings are failing. Get the oil changed and examine the old oil. If it looks like it has silvery particles in it, the the diff needs new bearings.

Get it back to Ollie, he'll diagnose honestly.
