If you have to add a quart every 400 miles and you are not smoking blue profusely out the tail pipe... you have GOT to be able to to find something leaking externally. Grab a floor jack, and start looking under the engine.

As for the loud hum... CV joints can fail in the boot without damaging the boot, but I'd go with the wheel bearing nissan3.5 called out.

Good Luck.
