Hi,

Infiniti service adviser asked me to conduct this survey so that he can report back to the corporate office with regarding the 2009 Sedan.

Vehicle: 2009 Journey Sedan, Premium, Navigation Package.

Problem: Driver hears High Frequency noise (such as ones you would hear during the hearing test) from the front Driver/Passenger side. Noise can be heard while audio is OFF, and when the gas paddle is pressed, and the car’s traveling 5mph+. Noise intermediately goes away once the car comes to a stop, while RPM is at ideal.

** Edit: This also happen when your car is PARKED, and RPM goes above 1200 RPM. The sound goes away when the RPM drops.

Please Test you car and report back so that Infiniti can trouble shoot the problem.


Thank you

 

I have a 2008 Coupe and have it.

 

Nope. Had mine for a month. I'll specifically listen in to that area of the car, but I've been cruising to the lovely soundtrack my new baby's 3.7L makes and I haven't noticed anything out of the ordinary.

 

I have this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I thought I was the only one, whew!!! Fvcking shiet pissses me offff! I just turn the music up though and you can't hear it anymore

 

Hi guys - I have a question on this. Does the pitch vary with RPM?

Just curious if it's an alternator noise getting into the electrical system somewhere

 

Never heard it.


try this!

 

There's other threads about this. It's not a ground loop or alternator noise. It doesn't vary with speed or RPM, at least mine doesn't.

 

DId you guys hear this noise since the first day you bought the car or did it appear out of the blue?

 

From the Day 1~!

 

i hear it ocassionaly, its been a while though since i last heard it.

 

NOPE~ had a car for 10 days now~ **knock on wood**

 

Got ours a week ago & only in it twice - once as driver; once as passenger. Didn't hear it, but will listen with no audio on next time. Waiting for repair of potholes due to all the snow/ice/salt of past week - roads are a mess & still lot's of salt around....

I guess there is a silver lining to being deaf

 

Thanks guys, i didn't notice it before but i went in the car and turned the radio off to see if i hear the noise and low and behold, i heard it. I can hear it whenever i depress the accelerator pedal and you don't have to be traveling 5+ mph. I shifted in neutral and just tap/slightly depress the accelerator pedal and i hear it. Whenever i release the pedal then the sound is gone. If anyone finds out a solution to this i would greatly appreciate it.....for the moment i would just keep the radio on and turn the music up .

 

need more people.. Everyone report back!~!
