It sounds like your starting to have some problems with the transfer case you might need a new motor encoder. I had the same problem a few months back with my voy i couldnt shift in to reverse somehow all i heard was a loud grinding noise in from underneath. So that loud exhaust noice you hear could be from your transfer case.

what....nobody is going to help me?In another thread you said you wanted to go to fulltime AWD. What's your real goal?
The transfer case can indeed go into a NEUTRAL mode, as explained in your owner's manual. If the encoder motor or control switch or wiring harness messes up, it can throw you into neutral, explaining the roaring noise. You were in neutral. Likely a dealer will need to run a diagnostic. Glad the holidays are over - it might cost $$.
