Hlep with high-frequency buzz, please!
 

Been there for a while on certain types of road surface. No buzz on nice smooth new roads, buzz on well-used roads.

It's a high-frequency buzz that I thought was coming from the speaker area, or maybe from the mirror area, or behind the instrument cluster.

I just discovered, though, that if you have any pressure at all on the gas pedal it sops buzzing. Off-throttle, buzz. Any pressure, no buzz.

For whatever reason, I can't get the https://demos.starbase7.net/ page to load. Any ideas as to what it might be and where to look?

Thanks!

Mine did it for a couple years but it eventually went away. It was almost like the sound a bee would make buzzing inside an envelope...not that I put bees in envelopes for fun or something.
I could hear it only with windows up and driving at about 45+ mph on a smooth round and it sounded like it came from instrument panel or speakers by window.
It never bothered me enough to really look for it since 99% of the time, I have the windows down but maybe try driving with a passenger to keep a look out as you get it to reproduce the sound and touch different areas to make it stop.

High pitched sound ….??

When you get older, it will go away …..:D

Heat shield? Mine dies the same since. I went through a big puddle. Haven't went on a quest to see what it is but pretty sure it is one of the heat shields. Had it before on other cars and sounds the same.

Thanks, all. I sill can't get to the tech doc site. Could one of you try, and if you can get in, post the throttle linkage stuff?

Is this where you wanna go .. ??

Yep. I get nothing. Time out, or incomplete page loads. It must be me, no idea at this point.

OK, try this:

If that don't work, you might try a different browser and/or refresh the page.

Got 'nuttin. Tried several browsers, cleared everything, all the usual suspects. Going to boot Mint next. No idea at this point.

iPad and Android tablet time out as well. Must be my connection, but everything else is good.

There isn't much to it. A couple M6 nuts.

Maybe the Russians are blocking you from stopping that sound …… :iono:

That sound may be that sonic sound torture, they have been suspected of using ….. :eyebulge:

Thanks much, but that can't be it, can it? The buzz is up front left.

You might check to see if something is lose that attaches to the inside of the firewall. Something that would vibrate when the engine is NOT torqueing over…..:iono:

For the gas pedal, yeah. It could be a bajillion things, though. You mentioned the speaker grill. A-pillar cover? Clutch/brake pedal assembly where it attaches to the chassis? The return spring inside my clutch master would rattle occasionally. That one was brutal. Sounded like a spun rod bearing until I learned to just barely tap the clutch pedal. Freakish.
