Default Rubbing sound when accelerating

Hi all,

I have a 2010 LR4 and there is a faint rubbing sound/vibration when accelerating. It could be nothing and I've had it in the shop since and they didn't say anything. Just wondering if it's normal or not??

Thanks for any help.

No, it is not normal!!!
Was this a Rover shop you took it to or a tire store?
How many miles on it, have you checked for worn out brake pads?

I had the rear rotors and brakes replaced. Still rubbing. It's just when I accelerate though not when I brake.

get it off the ground about 12 inches with a body lift ( 4 wheels in air ), and spin the wheels manually ...check the rotor back plates ...
