When I am driving at a constant speed and push the gas pedal quickly, there is a strange noise that occurs. It is hard to explain the noise. It is a high pitched screeching sound but is at a low decibel. When I am at a constant speed, I do not hear it. I only hear it when I hit the gas pedal and it stops as soon as I let off the gas or after a second or two after I have pressed the pedal. After hearing this, I pushed the pedal several times in a row and it makes the noise each time. Any suggestions?

 

The only squealing sound I can think of that is high pitched could be a belt slipping? That's the only thing I can think of.

 

I think I know the sound you are talking about. If so, I belive it is just the noise your gears/rear-end makes at low speeds. (Does it almost sounds like a high-pitched wind noise?)

 

Yes, it does sound like a high pitched wind noise, but it seems to sound like it is coming from the engine compartment. I could be wrong.

 

i can definitey hear a little tranny gear whine while driving at slow speeds. almost reminds me of the old c6 tranny...

 

I think I know what your talking about,does it almost sound like a whistling rushing of air? I have the same noise and I also have a K&N fipk. Kind of like it's bleeding off the extra pressure. It didn't start this until about a year or so after I installed it. I have pulled the entire system off for cleaning,and when reassembled it's still there. I've grown to like it actually,sounds like a turbo diesel spooling up. The only other thing I can think of is a slipping belt,and when I had that trouble it was a very loud screech,,,,98

 

98SCREAMER,
That is exactly what I am hearing. I just could not think of the words to describe it. (bleeding off the extra pressure) I guess I need to do what you do and learn to like the sound. Because now that I know it is there, it seems that is all I can hear. Thanks for the replies.

 

The fun part is when your passing someone on the road who has there window open. Their heads spin around,,,98

 

Run a vaccum check on the engine or have your local dealer or mech. do it for you. I had the same noise and had it check out shortly after. It turned up a trouble code for a vaccum leak.

who knows, it's worth a try.

 

Good call,I'll get the dealer to look at it the next time I try for a new torque convertor. Got to hate the {{((shudder))}},,,,98
