sorry, thought that was just from the flash of the camera. yes, drain and refill. if you can, catch the old fluid and measure how much was in there to see if there was a bad leak and you lost a lot of fluid. I forget the capacity, but its in my oil change thread. Refill, clean everything up and recheck like the others said.

hummining noise...not sure about what it could be. Need more info. Does it happen under acceleration, certain RPMs, higher as you go faster, while coasting, in neutral, etc.

Check the lower rear front control arm bushings, if you see any oil there then you need to replace the bushing/control arm. These bushings are fluid filled and once the fluid escapes you're done with that. You can opt to fit the RRS control arm which is alleged to have slightly tougher bushings - apparently the same as the LR3 armoured. It's about $30 difference on the arm I think.
Does the humming change when you change direction left/right/straight ahead ? It could be a wheel bearing on one side getting noisy depending on your mileage.
My 07 has 80K miles and I just replaced both lower control arms and both front wheel hubs/bearings....one wheel bearing failed without any prior noise and just scared the sh*t out me by a loud clonking. Thought I'd lost a driveshaft and when the guys got it on the ramp the degree of play in the wheel I mistook for loose lug nuts....
