Passat (B6) :: Faint Beeping Sound After Applying Brake When SAT Radio Is Selected
Driving a 2008 Passat with a factory 6 disc radio installed noticed a faint beeping sound after applying the brake when the SAT Radio is selected? I hear it all the time, especially when I'm listening to talk show and the volume is up high. Surprisingly, it doesn't make that sound when I have the CD Player selected.

I hear a slight gurguling sound coming from the engine when I first start it up and drive out of my driveway. My street has a slight incline (not much) and I'm usually driving in the up hill direction when I hear it. What could that sound be? I have a 2001.5 automatic V6 Passat.

98 Passat 1.8T FWD
Car will not start. No sound from fuel pump while cranking. Pulled up the carpets and pulled the cover and connector from the fuel pump. Ive heard the relay is the common problem. I tried checking the voltages on the harness and we get 0 while cranking. Pulled the relay and we get a resistance from T pin to pin 86. I did notice a yellow color on the white connector on the fuel pump itself around the middle two contacts.

The last two mornings I have gone into my garage and have heard a faint "buzzing" noise that seems to be coming from the rear of 2013 RX350. Given the location of the noise, my first inclination was that it was possibly the fuel pump running a cycle for some reason. But when I heard it for the second day in a row, I figured it would be wise to ask if this is normal or something I should take up with the dealer?

When we were driving our Touareg from the dealer, I (my dad did not notice) noticed that there was a faint whistling sound coming from the car. This happened on surface streets, not freeways, and about 35-40 MPH. Sunroof and windows were closed.

Just noticed a faint sound at idle when the car is not moving. I think I traced it down to the serpentine tensioner. Will take it to the dealer tomorrow and will update. Serpentine belt tensioner noise? 30k, stock car.

I recently encountered a problem with my treg's alarm. There usually is a very audible signal/tone when you lock the car. But now, I can barely hear it anymore. I even tried the PANIC button but the alarm is so faint. What can be causing this and where is the alarm/siren located?

Today I drove my 2006 G2 Prius with 59,000 miles to the park and had the windows down. I climbed a hill for a good while that had the engine under load and there was a concrete wall beside me, and I could hear a very very faint metallic-like rattle. I mentioned it to my partner who listened and said he couldn't even hear it, so maybe it is just me.

I have a 2010 LS 460 Sport and recently noticed that there is a faint water sound coming from behind the glove box every time I accelerate from standstill and sometimes when the car is idle and the A/C is on. My initial thinking was that it is some sort of a clog in the A/C drain, and that's what I told my service supervisor at the most recent service at a Lexus dealership. They said that they could not find anything except for a bit of debris in the A/C drain, which they blew out, however the noise is still there. The best way that I can describe the noise is that it's similar to a noise that a rainstick makes.
View 3 RepliesGolf/GTI VII :: Radio Stopped Producing Sound And Faint Gas Smell
So I started my car today and when I got back in it about 5 minutes later I could smell gas, faintly, but it was undeniable. I ran my vin through vw's recall system and came up empty. I'm going to get it checked out on Monday.
Also on my way home from dinner my radio stopped producing sound. When I tried turning the volume up the volume bar wouldn't move. I was on xm radio at the time and I switched to fm and am with no difference. Then I switched to my sd card. I was able to select a song but it wouldn't load on the main screen. I turned my car off and nothing changed. I tried using my phone and that worked, but after, the radio still wouldn't work. Then about 5 minutes later it started working again. So weird.
I saw that other people had problems with their stereo but it didn't seem the same.
Golf V R32 :: Faint Sound Coming From Passenger Side Rear Of The Car
I think I'm becoming an automotive hypochondriac ever since I started owning this car...I was sitting at a light the other day and all of sudden I heard a faint sound coming from what seemed to be the passenger side rear of the car. It sounded like a ticking clock or a heart beat...it was some what faint, but still noticeable. It is intermittent though and has no particulars when it happens and seems to go away when I begin to drive off... Fuel pump? Gremlins?
View 3 RepliesPrius (2004-09) :: Faint Jack Hammer Sound From Center Of Car
I first noted a very faint jack hammer type sound from center of bottom of car last week-noticed it once or twice while driving, but then it continued, a little louder, and even continued when I turned the car off for about 5 minutes. Same thing happened when I drove to work the next day, and when I went to get in my car after work, it was still doing it-I think the noise must have lasted all day. Took it to the dealer and he heard it the night I dropped it off but nothing the next day when warranty inspector came out. The service guy did tell me he captured it on the computer read out and it had something to do with the brakes or ?ABS system. Service said they would drive car home and check it out-he got nothing on his long ride home but the next morning when the car was cold, it reproduced the problem. Inspector was due to come back out next day when car was cold, but came later when it had warmed up and did not reproduce, so will not fix it. They tell me is is safe to drive...is it?? And what the heck could this be?
View 6 RepliesToyota - Matrix :: 2006 - Faint Hissing Sound On Acceleration
Immediately after my last Jiffy Lube oil change, my 2006 Toyota Matrix now has a faint hissing sound on acceleration. The sound seems to be coming from the engine compartment, kind of near where the glove compartment is. My first thought was that a leaf or piece of paper had gotten in with the cabin air filter when they checked it, but that's not it. The sound is there even with the fan off. There is no noticeable change in performance and no loss of air conditioning. Did they bump into a vacuum hose or something when they changed the oil? What could it be?
View 6 RepliesFord F-150 (2009-2014) :: Faint Squeal Sound Coming From Somewhere
I have a 2009 XLT 4x4 and it has a faint squeal sound coming from somewhere. I can only hear it with the window open driving between 20 to 50 Kph after that road noise is too loud. First thing in the morning it is not there seems you need to drive for 10 to 20 Km before it starts.
Turning right it gets louder left it seems to go away. Braking has no effect on the sound.
I have warmed it up in the morning and it still takes the same distance to squeal. Had it in the dealer and they changed out a front wheel bearing but that did not fix the problem. Had them service the brakes to rule that out too.
Lexus ES 2007-12 :: 2008 - Faint Rattle Sound Coming From Under The Hood While AC Is On

View 1 RepliesPrius (2010-12) :: Faint Pop Sound And Chemical Smell Detected When Coasting At About 30 Mph
Last week as I was returning home I had a strange event in my Prius. I was coasting at about 30 mph when I heard a very faint pop sound a bit like a balloon breaking. It sounded like it came from the right rear area of the car. Afterwards I thought I detected a very faint chemical smell. Could this have been something involving the HV battery?
View 10 RepliesPrius (2004-09) :: Faint Clicking Sound While Braking That Varies With Speed
I have determined that I most likely have a bad CV joint - a faint clicking sound while braking that varies with speed that happens with the car in drive, but not in neutral.
I've also found instructions here on how to remove/replace the axle, but I'm wondering if it can be done without separating the tie rod end and removing the ball joint. On other cars I've managed to do this by unbolting the strut, which allowed the hub assembly to flop out enough to be able to slide the axle out of it. Is this possible on the Prius? I have to replace my struts anyway so I was hoping to do it all at once and avoid dealing with potentially frozen suspension components.
