hard to tell. is it a metallic sound, dull sound, how loud, does it get louder when you speed up, col or hot of both, you need to be more specific.

its a 2005 with 43000 miles on very bad roads.
it gets louder with speed hot or cold.
not so much a metalic noise. sound like if you have another car right next to you.
