There is just a bunch of trolls responding so might as well close it

I hear the same thing, a whine. I was worried on my way back from formula d.

I hear the noise in mine as well. Approx. 72 mph it makes a harmonic frequency that resonates. changes with throttle. No idea what causes it but I've heard it for about a month now. I always thought "Whine" described it. Heard it could be the diff before, but never thought anything of it. just got used to it since my g/f Toyota does the same thing.

Probably the rear diff. Sometimes at certain speeds and light throttle loads the sound can be induced.

Unless it gets worse really quickly, I wouldn't worry too much.

I've noticed something in my car as well. Usually at any cruising speed not under load or acceleration. But I feel like i hear it towards the front, around the transmission area.

Solution: turn my music back on and stop listening for noises.

You guys can all start a band together!

Perhaps a sound clip would have produced more useful replies.

To those who have this "singing" noise, do you have a trd intake as well? I've had this noise for a while now and it gets annoying sometimes. It's a high-pitched noise that appears under light throttle at highway speeds even on cruise control.

Mine does it as well although I feel like it's more toward the trans... Oh well, power train warranty.

I uploaded a video in hopes someone can identify the cause and a fix.

I let off the throttle here and there to turn it off and on.

Does anyone have this whining and not have a trd intake??

What about a non-stock tran/rear diff fluid?

I'm wondering if it might be the hpfp. It's pretty noticeable once you hear it, comes on around 70mph light throttle.

This noise is aggravating but not an issue. I know mine has done it since day one and I now have 37k miles and it's still doing it. I chalked it up to the car not liking 70mph so I run 72. Easiest fix EVER!!! You can hear it at 35mph as well if you listen close, leads me to believe it would blow your eardrums at 140mph :)

i can't seem to hear anything where in the video am i suppose to listen closely?

TonyTDT 09-14-2014 05:48 PM

You might need to raise the volume a bit you can hear it throughout the entire video. It turns off at times when I let off the throttle.
