Hey all,
I've got this humming sound that i just started noticing 3 weeks after purchasing my new Altima 2.5 S, automatic transmission.
The sound only seems to occur when i accelerate and seems to follow the tempo of the engine speed. I called it a "humming sound" because that's the only way i could describe it. But i would also say that it has a resonating quality to it also. Its also more noticible when i'm coasting at low speeds ( around 25 mph.) with my foot off the pedal. I think the sound is probably occuring at high speeds too but the regular engine noise and road noise drowns it out at that point. It does NOT happen when the car is idling.
The sound isn't very loud but it is noticible to me and was not there when i bought the car.
It concerns me enough that i have an appointment for a service guy to check it out tomorrow.
Just wondering if anyone else has had a similar experience???
