Post

I own a 2011 Rogue with almost 30,000 miles. For the last two months there are times when I am accelerating and I begin to hear what I would call a buzzing sound. If I take my foot off the gas the buzzing sound will stop. The buzzing does not occur every time I accelerate but either way it has me concerned. In addition, yesterday I was driving and starting to hear the buzzing when I was at higher speeds over 60 mph. I had an regular oil change done last week and my local mechanic who is trustworthy and while on a short drive was not able to hear the buzz. If needed I will certainly take the car to my local Nissan dealership but was wondering if anyone had knowledge of the sound. Thank you

Welcome to NICO! Sorry to hear that your car is having trouble.

--------> READ BEFORE CREATING NEW THREAD! <--------

4. WE CAN'T GUESS WHAT NOISES ARE: Ask 10 different mechanics/members what a "rattle" is, and they will give you 300 different possibilities (ball joint, exhaust, shield, strut, hub, lose hatch, etc). Please don't even bother. A "rattle" can be metallic (tin or solid metal), plastic, body parts, junk we put into a car, etc. A tap, rattle, ting, clank, or scratching noise can describe 100,000 different parts and yet be different or the same description for one another; depends on the person. You call it a rattle, I call it tapping, she calls it a shaking metal, and he calls it a metallic noise. Please don't even bother posting that you hear something rolling/making noise INSIDE THE CAR - unless you have turned your whole car upside down FIRST. We are not there with you. I am tired of reading new threads that get updated a week later with: "flashlight in the trunk, baby rattle, etc" - when members spent their time, coming up with possibly could be wrong with your car mechanically. Its just not fair to everyone.

-4a. POST VIDEO CLIPS OF YOUR NOISES: If you ask a question regarding some noise, make sure to accompany your thread/post with a video- with an AUDIBLE sound clip. We are not mind readers, and don't know how you differentiate between taps/bings/tangs/rattles, etc. WE WILL LOVE TO READ ABOUT YOUR EXPERIENCES, AFTER YOU HAVE RESOLVED THE PROBLEM! SOME PEOPLE FIND A STRANGE LOCATION, SOMETHING COULD ROLL INTO - SO FEEL FREE TO SHARE AFTER THE FACT!
