I hate to tell you this but it is probably your tires causing this noise. I had a similar experience when I purchased new Goodyear Wranglers. I learned that there are many different tire designs all under the Wrangler name. The tire store had put on an All-Terrain design on. Anyhow, I didn't even make it home on these new tires as the noise was so objectionable.
 
I had the tire store pull the Wranglers off and put Toyo tires on instead and they ride nice and quiet. Hope this helps.

I have the same problem, except the growling sound is coming from the front end. When I engage the 4WD, the sound goes away. Any luck figuring it out?

Have knocking noise coming from rear end at startup. Only lasts seconds. Then may not hear it for a while. What could this be?

Perhaps a loose tail pipe?

Hello,
 
Did you every figure out what the buzzing noise was? I have the same problem with my blazer and it is driving me crazy.

Just bought 02 Blazer. It had over heated. Mechanic replaced heads, sensors, etc. He said the pistons and walls looked good. I still have a loud tapping noise when accelerating, cold & warm. Less noise with higher rpm. Quiets while deceleration. Mechanic said there was Tech Service Report that said "Some Blazers had pistons installed backwards to try to increase compression. And this was causing the noise." Anyone heard of such a story? He said compression is good in all cylinders. Any other sources of the noise? Much appreciated.

1st noise) a whining growl (or growling whine) on acceleration...not always, and seldom above about 35. Torque converter? 2nd noise) possibly related to ist noise? the vehicle "shakes" starting at about 62 mpoh. does NOT shake the steering wheel. have checked u-joints/axle bearings, and they are fine. it does not shake, shimmy, or anything else below 60 mph.
related? separate? help???
