Golf IV R32 :: Weird Howl / Vibration Transmitting Through The Pedals And Steering Wheel
Tried to do some searching regarding this and info was pretty thin. When I'm up at highway speeds there is an obnoxious howl transmitting through the steering wheel. On occasion it will go away but it's generally there. There is some vibration coming through and it's driving me absolutely nuts - it almost makes the car feel overweight and sluggish, but that may just be in my head.
I had 4 new tires put on and an alignment done around 3 weeks ago, so it shouldn't be related to that. I was told that my right rear Aristo has a slight bend in it, but would that cause such a harsh reaction? I was thinking wheel bearings but I really don't know how to check for that.
Golf VI R :: Howl Noise Emanating From Rear When Keeping Speed?
Currently doing a road trip in my R and I've noticed after a considerable amount of time on the road, there's a howl noise emanating from the rear when keeping speed. Goes away under light acceleration. I can even hear it over the radio. After resting the car and me (12 hrs) I get back on the road and after a couple of hours the howl comes back. Is it the rear diff? I don't think it's wheel bearings. Tires have a different noise. 2013 R w/ 4000 miles. Or is it just what happens when you drive for hours on end?
View 15 RepliesFord F-150 (2004-2008) :: Loud Rear End Howl / Whine
My '04 4wd has a pretty loud rear end howl, it is a LS but don't think it's an LS problem, no noises or chattering when turning. Howling is loudest at 50 to 60, but some noise at all speeds. I don't mind tearing into the rear myself, but not sure if I could tell what was wrong just by looking, i suppose bad bearing might be obvious, but not sure how to diagnose gear lash tolerances. It only has 107000 mi. and is an 8.8 rear I believe.

Need to replace at least one rear wheel bearing, but still not positive which side. Getting a whump whump whump and slight howl at speed that seems to be worse going around right turns, so will change the drivers side first.

Vibration coming from either the roof rack or rear of the vehicle? I seem to get it in cold weather sometimes or when I accelerate from between 40 and about 60 mph. I have checked to see if the roof rack needs tightening but it looks good. Of course, every time I bring in for service, guess what, they cannot replicate the sound.

T-reg is at the dealer and told it won't be back for at least a week. I noticed water in the rear cargo area under air compressor after rain. Also, rear wiper makes a terrible noise when turned on. Was told that replacement parts are not local and would take at least a week.
Noticed vibration from the steering column area when coming to a stop at a traffic light? Be sure to check your cargo areas!!!

OK so I had two bad coils replaced today [URL] ....
Picked up the truck from the shop and it ran PERFECT. Driving home it started pouring rain. Got off the highway and stopped at the light and I hear a loud howl . When I give it gas, the howl goes away.
When I come to a complete stop and idle it howls again. I get home and park it and it still howls even in park. Rev it up just the slightest bit and the howl goes away... Really hope its just the water from the road that isn't playing nice and it will clear up on its own...

Jeep - Grandcherokee :: Loud Howl When Accelerating
I own a rear-wheel-drive 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee. I recently had both rear axle seals and bearings replaced. At the same time I had the mechanic check U-joints, shocks, etc. The noise from the failing bearings is gone, but now I have a loud "howl" that gets louder the more I accelerate. If I take my foot off the accelerator, the sound is gone. As soon as I accelerate, the sound returns. It is barely noticeable at speeds less than 35 mph, but the howl gets increasingly louder as the speed increases.
I returned to the mechanic the same day I picked up the Jeep. We went on a road test and I was given a story about gears in the differential and that despite the noise everything was mechanically sound. Even though the sound was not present before the seals and bearings were replaced, the mechanic assured me that nothing is wrong. This howling is giving me a headache!
Touareg :: Installing Reflector On Right Rear Side Of Lower Rear Bumper?
How to remove/install a reflector on the right rear side of the 'lower' rear bumper? I don't see any screws. So, can I pop it out with a screwdriver? Or, is it attached from the inside?
View 2 RepliesFord - F150 :: 2005 - Whistle / Howl Sound At Certain Speeds
I have 140,000 miles on my 2005 F-150 and for the past year I have noticed a somewhat high-pitch whistle or howling sound coming from either the front or underneath. The pitch and volume continuously varies as though it is just tire howl, but I just changed all four tires and no results. It gets much louder at about 65 mph and 78 mph, but I don't hardly hear it at any other speed. My brother says it's just a wind whistle, but I strongly disagree as it doesn't change when i drive against or with a strong wind. I rely on this pickup for work and can't afford to be without it for more than a day or two, so, for peace of mind at least, I would like to know what is making the sound.

Passat (B6) :: 2007 - Howl Noise On Clutch Area Of Wagon
I have 07 standard wagon,what is happening is when releasing the clutch to start movement it a times makes a howl/wine noise. This will occur most times when car has a loaded or starting on a hill.
The dealer can not tell me what it is for sure, this dealer has a good reputation and I have good luck with. He said that he does not have another car to compare it with, because manuals are not common.
Looking for pictures of the clutch area?
Ford F-150 (2004-2008) :: A/C On Seems To Cause Engine To Bog Down / Howl / Moan And Growl?
I have had an engine growl / howl problem that seemed to disappear with the cooler weather. However, turning the A/C back on yesterday, the growl/howl re-appeared. Is the A/C compressor bad? A/C clutch bad? Heading out on a long distance trip at the end of the month.
When the moan/ groan comes from the engine bay intake area, I have to back off of the throttle in order to re-accelerate... Gas pedal seems to become dead...
Touareg :: Vibration At Idle
I asked the service mgr. to bump up the idle ever so slightly. He was limited to a very minor bump otherwise it would read as a fault. It worked - no idle vibration (so far).
View 4 RepliesAzera HG (2011-16) :: Howl Noise Between 1000 - 1500 RPM Whether In Motion Or In Park
I just took delivery of a 2015 pewter gray base azera. It is my second one as I purchased a leftover 2013 last year. The sonatas had to go just not comfortable enough for me. Between 1000-1500 rpm whether in motion or in park I get a sound like an owl hooting. my 2013 does not do it.i can make it do it any time I want. This is really annoying in traffic it actually can be heard with the radio on. the dealer said it is normal and let me drive another new one on a test drive and it does it too. Almost sounds like it could be a harmonic noise in the intake or exhaust. Going to see if I can pinpoint it this weekend. I am very disappointed as my 2013 has 36k on it and other than the rattle at start up no issues.

I've got sort of a howl going on, was thinking rear end, but when i jacked up the wheels and spun the driveshaft the noise seemed to come from the transfer case area. I haven't had a chance to check the fluid yet, could it be a bearing in the t-case? Its only when i'm on the gas if i let off its gone. 2001 f150 super crew 4x4

2002 Screw 4X4 with 5.4 ... Truck has 180K miles.
Howl / Growl noise we think from the front. Both front wheel bearings have been changed without improvement. A rotational issue as it only does it when moving and still does it if you put it in neutral and let it coast.
2 WD or 4 WD does not seem to make much difference. Been checking and testing everything without success. Drive shafts and u-joints are tight etc.
How to test it? It was my truck and is my son's truck now. They have run it on a hoist and tried to determine where the sound comes from. Going to try that again but it might be different when the wheels are not on the ground and there is no weight on things.
Touareg :: Vibration And Noise In The Wheel
I realize this has probably been beaten like a dead horse. '04 though. I have an '06 v6 Touareg. When I first bought it, it had a nasty vibration in the wheel, they rebalanced, and rotated the tires. It went away. Now, with about 20K on the vehicle, and having rotated religiously, I have the MOST annoying Howl. The tires have become SO noisy.
