I have a 2005 SC430, 81K, drives great......... except for noisy rear from both sides. Putting car on lift eliminates the weight and the noise so repair shops cannot see where issue is ....... any thoughts?

Can you give us more information? Like what part of the rear is making the noise?
Here are a few videos that may help you find the noise: https://www.youtube.com/results?sear...noise+in+a+car

My English is awful I will try my best here because I had my share of noise in my SC430.
If the noise is coming while accelerating its most likely the exhaust heat shield if you recently changed your brake pads or hit something and heard in low speed it may be the tire shield, if you have Polyurethane bushings this is normal in cold weather you will have to spray lithium grease on the bushings.

Lets collect more information.
Does it happen during accelerating ?
Does it happen during braking ?
Does it happen during highway speed?
Does it happen during parking lot speed ?
Does it happen during turning ?
Does it seem to come from the left or right side, or just down the middle ?
Does the noise have a vibration too ?
Does it happen when going from reverse to drive or drive to reverse?
