For the past few days something along my rear axle has been making a rotating whooshing noise(a quiet "wompwompwomp"). It gets more prominent when i'm accelerating and then quiets down when i'm just coasting. Im assuming it's my diff since the noise is mainly when i'm on the gas.

Is there any way to diagnose what might be wrong? I'm able to lift the car up i just don't know what i would even be looking for.
