strange noise coming from rear wheels

My 2001 GLE has 137000 miles and has been well maintained.

After driving a spell, a strange buzzing noise occurs (intermittently) for 15 minutes or so . . . from the rear wheel wells. Its a high frequency vibration or buzzing.

The motor mounts are disconnected . . . and I only hear the noise after the car is shut off. The brakes work well.


Any ideas?

From the rear wheel wells?

Only two options I can think of off the top of my head...

1.) Electronic motor mounts are making noise somehow and it's telescoping down to the wheel wells. How, I have no idea.

2.) Your ABS is freaking out...somehow.
