Subtle whine noise when accelerating
Hello everyone,
I started noticing a noise coming from the front of the car when accelerating. Since I recently bought the car (used), I am unsure if this is a normal sound or if it indicates a problem. Here's the link of the audio file: https://drive.google.com/open?id=165...ZEQAHUtFHSNm9V The noise is mostly noticable between 5 and 8 seconds: I performed a few tests so far: - Not influenced by AC - Sound is louder when accelerating but still present (very faint) when rolling at a constant speed - Sound pitch and loudness is not affected by the gear I am in (automatic transmission) Should I be worried or is this a normal sound? |

Mine has been doing that too lately. 2007 with 118,000 on it. I’m guessing CV joint maybe ?

That sounds pretty normal. I wouldn't devote any time or money into tracking it down until it presents itself as an actual issue.
