I am getting this odd sound when I throttle the gas pedal. The sound is very prominent at night. Much more so than during the day.

It sounds like a high-pitched squeal that builds up as I press further down on the gas. Like.. "eeeeeEEEEE"

Does anyone have any clue what I am talking about?

 

is it a 6mt?

 

might want to check this thread out...

It's the journey AT.

 

Yea might want to take it to the dealer... Never heard of a 5AT making any 'whining" noises... Our 6MT's make TOO MANY noises... Hehehe

 

I have this as well....

When I gas It usually clears the room... and I hear everyone whining about it...

 

I worried also about whiney noises, damn burritos

 

...and I looked to you for civility on this board....jeez

 

Have you changed the Stereo? If so you could be catching an alternator whine through the speakers. You'd just need to seperate the power from the speaker wires more. Typically you want to run the power and ground down the opposite side as your speaker wire.

 

does it happen only in triptronic mode? i always hear the whiny noise, when going from 1st to 2nd and sometimes when going 2nd to 3rd (triptronic mode)

 

I have 5 A/T and have never heard any whine noise ever. Not in A, DS or full manual mode

 

I think Graham's suggestion could be right.

The cable for the subwoofers in the back wasn't properly grounded so I had that fixed. That's about when I started hearing the whiny noise. I'm going to have that checked out.

 

Ain't that the truth!

 

Must look harder
