Default Baffled! Don't think transmission but...

'06 LR3 rumbly ride. Smooth acceleration and shifting until 30mph. Then it's like driving over cobblestones. Highway speeds back to zero mph same whether in drive or neutral at every speed. Vibration very different from wheel balance or alignment problem. Tire pressures fine. History of air suspension faults, but not currently.

Really stumped by this. Thoughts?!?

Wheel bearings, Driveshafts?

need to get it in the air and start moving things to find the play.

I thought maybe wheel bearings. Doesn't explain why it waits until 30mph to kick in though? Or does it? 🤔

It could. Maybe it needs that much speed/friction to present itself? A guess

jack up the front, grab the wheel at 12 and 6 and rock back and forth.

better than guessing.
