High Pitched Whining Sound

High Pitched Whining Sound
I just purchased this 2006 F150 4x4 Extended Cab 4.6 Patriots edition truck.
It's been cold up here recently. When driving at certain low rpms I get a whining sound coming from the engine bay that sounds like a jet engine warming up or like a high pitched whistle. It goes away when decreasing or increasing the thottle. It's not a belt type squeal. Any idea what it may be?
Thanks!

Thousands of reported cases - very few actual remedies.
You can try to replace yer PS fluid with Amsoil ATF.
It may also be the dreaded alternator whine. Replacement is one fix.
Good Luck!
