Default strange freelander 1 noises from underneath

Hi so I had offside front ball joint and tyre replaced on my 05 freelander td4 and a few weeks later i noticed a whining noise even when my other half wasn't in the car.
It sounds like wind whistling through a house. It doesn't get faster or louder with speed and is still there when rolling in neutral.
Then shortly after I noticed a rumbling from the rear when at high speed. I corrected the low tyre pressures and it went away.
Now again shortly after I've noticed when manouvering at the end of a journey there's a distinct vibration/rumble from the mid rear when travelling in either direction at fullish lock.
It goes away quite quickly and isn't there at the start of a journey.
Are they connected? And should I be playing the lottery?

Thanks in advance for any help

I would wonder if your VC in the driveline isn't going bad

Was kinda hoping it might be something less expensive.
Can I just take the prop off and keep it 2wd?
