1993 Previa, all wheel drive makes a howling noise from the front end, all speeds, in or out of gear. Bearings have been checked for looseness and seem OK. Might it be the front trans axle or whatever mechanism they use up there? 220,000 miles.

Ford - Explorer :: 2002 - Front End Is Howling / Wheel Bearing Noise?

I'm working on a 02 explorer. The front end is howling so I replaced the left side and no change. The howl goes away when braking. Is it the right side then or something else? I replaced both front brakes pads so it's not that.

Passat (B7) :: 2013 - Howling Noise At 70 MPH

On 3/16/15 i purchased a used 2013 Passat 3.6 SE. The car is pretty much what i was looking for, simplistic, clean, and with a touch of power. My test drive was minimal, never really hit the highway. The car had 19K plus miles when I bought it.

Here is my issue, when driving it home after purchasing it, as soon as we hit 69 MPH (range is 69-71ish), there is a "howling", not a whistling, noise comming from the front of the car. I initially thought it was the road, (road construction), or the "wind pattern" for that night. Well neither of those seem to be the issue. I havent really put many miles on it in my 2 days, maybe 50 miles..

What this noise could be? I really cant explain the nosie other that its a "howling" noise.. Like wind is depected hitting an open window in a horror flick?

Golf IV R32 :: Howling Sound Above 100km?

Howling sound when reaching above 100km? The sound comes spot on 100km, below it sounds normal. Would it be bearings or just wind noise sneaking in to the cabin? I bought the car used so is this normal.

Passat (B5) :: Howling Noise Under Light Acceleration

Lately I've been experiencing a howling noise upwards of 2000 rpm when accelerating under a certain throttle position... Basically makes a WOO type of sound coming from the drivers side of the car.. very noticeable and annoying. When I step on the gas harder it goes away, and if i just rev the car in neutral (no load) the noise will not happen! This makes it impossible to figure out where it's coming from with the hood open. Checked the IC hoses, air box and a bunch of vacuum lines and no luck...

Cherokee :: 94 Jeep - Howling Noise That Sounded Like A Bearing Going Out

Had a howling noise that sounded like a bearing going out. After searching, I see that the fan belt is actually sliding on the pulley. Looks like a vertical alignment problem. It could be the idler pulley, the fan pulley or possibly the lower Crank (?) pulley knocking it out. I can see the belt sliding approx 3/8 to 1/2 inch . At idle it sits closer to the engine, as rev it seems to line up. All this action certainly means the belt is shot. But could be idler too.

I went through a few things to check it out. I looked at the power steering unit, pulled off the belt and check if there was any obvious play in each of the pulleys. All seemed ok. The idler seemed rough running but no wobble of play in it. I will replace the idler anyway since I bought one. The belt has no damage to it. It was changed about a year ago. So it's just been wandering on the fan pulley. Went to the Crank pulley and the dampener .and it feels tight. There are some obvious small plastic cracks on the outside. friend suggest pulling on the pulley and look for separation between the inner, outer, and rubber ring in between. Felt and looked tight. After I change the idler anyways, I'll look again. But could the crank dampener still be bad?

Santa Fe (CM - 2007-12) :: 2011 - Humming / Howling Sound At 55+ MPH

6K mile 2011 Santa Fe Limited front wheel drive V6 and I am getting a humming/howling sound at 55+ MPH and it is very annoying, not too loud but there. It is really bad at 75+...

The tires were road forced balanced and a alignment was done by the dealer. The Rear was way out of align but they supposedly fixed it.

I do not get any kind of vibration in the body or steering wheel but the humming/howling sound is terrible. Almost like when you crack one of the rear windows and you get that pressure sound...

Golf/GTI VI :: Whining / Howling Noise From Vents In 2nd Gear

Have an issue with 2nd gear? Specifically, driving around at say 2-3k RPM around a slow driving area and have a howling. whining noise come from the vents/engine bay area. Its strange cause this only happens in 2nd gear, no other gear at the 2-3k rpm range makes this noise.

At first I thought it was the HPFP, but when I brought it in a VW tech he heard nothing. But its pretty freaking obvious with or without windows up and no music playing.

Should I take this into another dealership to get this checked out? Or is it normal.

FYI I do have a Injen Intake installed.

Dodge - Stratus :: 1999 - Differential Transmission Has Been Howling For A While

I have a 1999 Dodge Stratus Base with a 2.4L and an automatic transmission. The differential in this transmission has been howling for a while now and I had a mechanic look at it. He told me that there are a few teeth missing from one of the ring gears. I have a transmission from a 1997 Stratus in my shed that has a good differential in it. I know that the two transmissions themselves are not interchangeable but I have been wondering if the differential hard parts are interchangeable?

Buick - LeSabre :: 1999 - Howling / Whining Noise

I hear a noise that sounds like a bad wheel bearing when I hit 68 mph, and it gets worse when I go faster. I've had both bearings replaced, but still hear the noise. It is directly related to speed...the faster I go beyond 68 mph the worse it gets.

Ford - Explorer :: 2008 - Howling Noise When Driving Between 50 - 60 Mph

My Dad has an 08 with the V8. When driving between 50-60 mph there is a "howling" sound. It is not noticeable at speeds lower than 50 or greater than 60. The sound reminds me of what you hear with all terrain tires when they are worn or a mud tire but not quite as loud. He has replace the tires with regular street treads and the noise is still there. He has checked for worn bearings or loose heat shields and everything is as it should be. What could this be coming from? What about the center drive shaft bearing mentions in this link?

Ford Aerostar :: 1996 4WD Makes Howling Noise

I recently purchased a 96 4WD Aerostar off of eBay, from the USPS. It runs good, has no codes stored, gas mileage is what I expected, However, it makes and intermittent howling noise. Not usually around town, but almost always after a ride on the interstate. It seems to be coming from the air intake snorkle. This week my brother called a Ford tech he knows, who suggested it might be the "hooter hose" or the Idle Air Control. I've never heard of a "hooter hose" and can't find it on google. What's going on and steps to diagnose and correct this problem?

After tracking a howling sound from my 02 elantra gt pulley are, I figured it to be the water pump bearing. I replaced the water pump less then a year and a half ago and was wondering if its common for aftermarket pumps to go fast? Or is there anything I did wrong installing?
