Tiguan :: High Pitch Squeaking Noise Coming From Accessory Belt Area Or Timing Chain

I have a 2009 Tiguan 2.0t 4 motion and recently has started having a very high pitched squealing noise coming from either the accessory belt area or the timing chain. The noise is constant until you are under acceleration and then it goes away. The CEL came on but when scanned it said no codes. and now sometimes the CEL will flash and the car has been idling rough. What it may be?

Ford F-150 (2004-2008) :: Whining Sound Coming From Transmission Or Somewhere Else In Drivetrain

2008 F150 HD Payload package with 5.4L and 4spd auto, 61,000 miles.

Recently developed a whining sound coming from the transmission or somewhere else in the drivetrain. Does not sound like rear axle because it changes pitch with the change of gears. I proved this by disengaging OD while driving and the whine was higher pitched once the transmission down shifted. I did some other research and found a reference to the #9 bearing going bad in a 4R75 trasnmission in a Crown Victoria. I am going to fight for any repair to be covered by the powertrain warranty even though it just clicked 61,000. The dealer has done ALL maintenance on this truck since it was new (following severe duty recommendations).

Caravan/Voyager :: Whining Sound From The Start / Belt Came Off

Bought this cheap 93 grand caravan 3.3 with about 350,000km about 750km ago and it had a bit of a whining sound from the start, thought it was normal for it's life. Last night I was taking my daughter and infant grand-daughter home when there was a terrible clunking, grinding and rattling sound coming from the engine. It was about -20 outside so I decided to just limp it home, but when I got a block from my daughters house I lost power steering. I checked under the hood an saw the belt on the left side with all the pulleys had come off and only one pulley near the bottom was spinning. after trying to spin the other pulleys i noticed one wouldn't spin ether way,and was really hot. thought it might have seized up and threw the belt. Is there a pulley in there that's not supposed to move freely, and if not what should I do now?

Elantra XD (2001-06) :: Timing Belt Tightness And Whining Sound

I recently replaced the timing belt, tensioner, and roller in my car. Today I became concerned that I hadn't tightened the tensioner properly so I did a quick check (it was). I also noticed the timing belt felt a bit loose, so I tightened it to what I thought was about 1/4" deflection with 5lbs pressure—not what that feels like in that tight space.

When I started the car there was a noticeable whining sound. Before I changed the belt there was a slight whining sound (but there was no whine after I changed the belt). So I loosened the belt a bit and there's now a slight whine. I feel like the whine shouldn't be there but it's hard for me to imagine that the belt should be any looser since I can move it 1/4" inch without much effort.

So, should I be tightening the belt to the point where the whining is gone, or is a slight whine ok?

Sonata NF (2006-10) :: Whining / Slight Squeaking Noise Coming From Drive Belt

I have a 2006 sonata gls 3.3l v6. There is a whining/slight squeaking noise coming from the drive belt when i turn the car on. When the noise started it would only occur when turning with the AC or Heat on. It then escalated to whenever i started the car and would go away after driving for a while. Now the noise continues even after a drive sometimes..

I've been told by a mechanic friend that the belt looks ok. So my plan is to take the passenger side tire off and the splash guard on that side to get at the tensioner for the belt. Once I have the belt off i plan on turning the various pulleys that the serpentine belt goes on to see if i can figure out which one is making the noise. How to pinpoint where the noise is coming from?

Here's a link to a youtube video I put up with the noise my car is making ............ YouTube

IS F (2008-2014) :: Engine Noise / Ticking Sound Coming

I noticed my sound a few weeks ago but wasn't as loud as the videos I've seen. Didn't really bother me. I did notice today that the sound was a lot louder . The only thing that has changed is i had my oil changed over the weekend with mobil 1 5w-30 fully synthetic. Now I don't know if that could factor into the sound getting louder.

I am really hoping its just a cat and i can replace my headers and everything is good. i just got the car with 19k miles on it and do not have a warranty.

I have been worrying about "engine noises" for years and at this point if its something i can't fix without dumping thousands of dollars into it, then so be it. I am just going to enjoy the car too the fullest. Plus, once i get full exhaust, it will work with canceling out the ticking sound.

IS F (2008-2014) :: Metallic Click Sound Coming From Left Rear Axle Area When Shift Into Reverse

This has going on for a few months now off and on. Whenever drive my F hard I notice this metallic click when i go to shift hard into second. The metallic click seems to be coming from the front of the car. I also get it if I'm around 3600rpm in and stomp on the pedal in first or second. It also happens when I shift into reverse. What it could be??

It also happens when i floor it and let off and do not change gears mainly in first and second. Sometimes i get a double click also.

At first I thought something could have gotten trapped in the engine bay and it only accelerated to a high enough speed to cause an audible noise but seeing as it been 3 or 4 months I don't think its the problem. It does not seem to effect spend and it does not make the click all the time.

Elantra GD (2013+) :: Noisy AC System - Distinct Whining Sound That Increases With Speed

My GT is very quiet when running and I like that. However, the AC system seems noisy when it is on. When I turn on the fan and heater, I hear a distinct whining sound that increases in frequency as I increase speed. When I turn the fan off, the car is whisper quiet. Also, when I turn the AC on, I can hear what sounds like coolant circulating through the system. At first it sounded like it was coming from the glove compartment and I thought it might be associated with the glove-compartment cooling feature, but I don't believe it is. The noise is not unbearable but it is noticeable and distracting to me.

Is this a noisy climate-control system or is this something unique to my car.

Ford - Explorer :: Subtle Whining Sound Coming Somewhere From Outside The Car

A few days ago I was driving on the freeway for about 20 minutes and started hearing a subtle whining sound coming somewhere from outside the car. To quickly narrow it down to the engine, a wheel or the drive train, I pushed the clutch in, took it out of 5th and waited for the RPMs to drop. Then I hit some noisy rough asphalt and couldn't tell. Oh, well.

Here's the first big clue. When I shifted back into 5th, the gear shifter went into gear with no problem, but the clutch would not re-engage despite the pedal returning to its normal position.

Here's the second clue. Since I couldn't get the clutch to re-engage I decided to try one more data-gathering action. I turned the engine off (still coasting at 70 mph) and tried to restart. It would not restart, exactly as if I had not depressed the clutch pedal. So, I coasted for as long as I could and then walked the remaining 1.5 miles.

Here's the third clue. When I got back to my car about an hour later I tried to start it again. No joy, but then I heard a click underneath the car when I released the clutch pedal. I tried once again and it started. I drove the remaining 1.5 miles to the exit and started to notice the clutch appearing to stick for a second and then suddenly release. When I got to the gas station where I was before, it was done, just like on the freeway. Again, the gear shifter and the clutch pedal operated totally fine, but it seemed that the business end of the clutch would not re-engage until it cooled off. After it cools off, everything seems to work just fine.

So:

1999 Explorer Sport
4L V6 SOHV
5-speed manual
196,000 miles

What should I check?

Prius (2010-12) :: Whining Sound Coming From Front Area

I test drove a new 2012 Prius Three today and heard an odd whining sound coming from the car. Seemed to be from the front area, but I'm not sure. The salesman said it was "sonar," which was added to the latest models so that pedestrians, particularly those who are hard of hearing will know you are coming.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2001 - Whining Sound Coming From Engine

I've had this car for awhile now and it's always had this weird whining sound coming from the engine.I had the transmission serviced thinking maybe that was the sound and it wasn't. I've taken off the serpentine belt and spun all the pulleys. I can't figure it out, I'm thinking maybe timing chain but I'm not sure.

Prius (2004-09) :: 2008 - Developed Whining Sound - Don't Get Best Mpg

Back story, I've been borrowing my father's 2008 Prius off of him since I took a new job and my Tacoma doesn't get the best mpg, and finally purchased it off of him. Its making a new sounds though and he wants to get it fixed if its something major.

Its a quiet peeping that can be heard inside the car when coming to a stop (just when its quiet.) I've tracked the sound down to the engine bay but cant pinpoint where it is exactly, somewhere on the drivers side and its more of a pulsating whining sounds. The water pump was replaced about 10k miles ago at 65k miles under warranty.

Toyota - Matrix :: 2008 - Whining Sound When Accelerating

I have a 2008 Toyota Matrix with 56k miles on it. Recently it starting to make a whining sound when accelerating. It's very subtle, but kinda sounds like a plane taking off. It seems to go away once the car is moving/maintaining speed. I just got an oil change and the air filter replaced. Also, it seems to idle rougher than it used too, or I could just be paranoid.

Avalon 2005-12 :: Check Charging System Message / Car Being In Accessory Mode

After clearing my 2013 Avalon today, which took about 2 hours to complete, I attempted to start the car and it would/will not turn over. I waited a bit and attempted again, same result. The battery appears to be fine, all the lights and the console are working, power windows, etc. The heads up display had this message: "Check Charging System" I have check the owners manual and read something about the car being in Accessory mode. Another item referred to the fuel system being disable. None of these examples make sense.

Ford F-150 (2009-2014) :: Power Steering Stuck Sometimes - Loud Whining Sound For 10 Seconds Or So

I'm having some strange action in the turn where sometimes it "sticks" and also I sometimes get a loud whining sound for 10 seconds or so and I believe it's coming from the power steering but I could be wrong.

I know my ecoboost has an electronic power steering system but that's the extent of my knowledge on it. Does it have a pump anywhere in the system that could be making this whining noise?

124,+++ miles, no real issues, runs like a champ.

Prius (Gen 2) :: Whining Sound Coming From ICE Side When Driving In Cold Weather

So I noticed that there is a type of whining sound coming from the ICE side whenever the temperature is below ~55F. This only happens from a cold start and only when I'm accelerating (pressing the gas pedal) and always go away after the engine warms up.
