I own a 2002 Chevy Suburban 1500. A couple of months ago I had to have the rear axle differential replaced. Soon after getting my truck back, I noticed my brakes weren't functioning as they should. I was told to check the brake fluid and I found the reservoir to be very low. I was told I must have a leak and to monitor it. The day after topping it off, it was low again, pretty much confirming the leak. I've been driving that way, filling the brake fluid as much as possible. I know I should've taken it in ASAP, but that differential job set me back. Well, this past week I drove out an hour from home and as soon as I got off the highway and onto rural roads, the truck started making a sort of howling or roaring noise. It only sounded when I pressed the gas to accelerate. Releasing the gas made the noise stop. Over the course of the week, it has gotten louder and worse. Although it still only does it while accelerating, when releasing the gas pedal, the howling lingers a few seconds longer before going quiet. There is no noise while truck is idle and I rev up the gas. Both ABS and Brake lights on dash are on. Could something have gone wrong when the rear end was replaced to cause this issue now (or even the brake leak)? Could it be directly linked to the all-but-officially-confirmed brake leak? Thanks in advance.
SOURCE: abs brakes making noise.
Well the abs light reads wheel speed sensors located behind the rotors you will see a little wheel with notchs in it and when reads as if the wheel is locked up it will activate the abs i would inspect those sensors for damage possible one got bent or has junk on it interfearing with the signal and take it back to the place that did the brake job hope this helps

do you have a self bleeder kit? first off, you have to bleed the master cyl back into its self and the combination valve before you go to the wheels. when you do that, I think you will find that you have air in the lines. disconnect both brake lines from the master cyl and put the bleeder kit fittings on the master cyl, then put the rubber tubing with the kit on the fittings and submerge it in the brake reservoir. make sure its full. then pump the pedal until you get a hard pedal. if that is the case, reconnect the lines to the master, then have an assistant pump up the brake pedal with the engine off, and bleed the combination valve which should be connected to the master by steel tubing. pump it up, then hold it down, and crack the fittings loose, one at a time until the pedal goes about half way down, but do not release the brake pedal until the line is tight again, otherwise you will **** air in the lines. after you do all that, go to the farthest caliper or wheel cylynder from the master and bleed that with the same technique,and dont release the pedal until you close the bleeder screw. unless you have a major prob, this will work.

You must replace wheel bearings in pairs to avoid loading the old bearing and, in time ruining your new bearing hub it is possible that you have already damaged the new hub

Your noise sounds like it is power train related,If you have eliminated the engine,Since it doesn't make the noise while moving and in neutral.
It sounds like a universal joint in the drive shaft.Do you notice a vibration
along with the noise?

you may have air trapped in the ABS EHCU. Did you use this procedure?
Bleeding the EHCU
Bleeding the EHCU requires the use of the TECH-1 scanner or its equivalent and the appropriate cartridge. Additionally, 3 tools, J-39177 or equivalent, are required. Bleeding cannot be performed without this equipment.
The EHCU must be bled after replacement or if air is trapped within the unit. It must be bled after bleeding the master cylinder and before bleeding the individual wheel circuits.
The Internal Bleed Valves on either side of the unit must be opened 1 / 4 - 1 / 2 turn before bleeding begins. These valves open internal passages within the unit. Actual bleeding is performed at the two bleeders on the front of the EHCU module. The bleeders must not be opened when the system is not pressurized. The ignition switch must be OFF or false trouble codes may be set.
