Thanks in advance!

I have two things.....The first is a humming/enginr noise that occurs when I am driving 40-60 MPH it is barley audible when I am on the throttle, but when I let off of the gas I hear a whinning/humming sound. Any Ideas?

Second, my driver heated seat turns on and lights up for 10-30 seconds and then the light shuts off, they passenger works fine. Any ideas? I dont some searches, but there is nothing definite.

Best,

Blaine

Hi,

Your first issue is likely a bad wheel bearing on the side that hums: post6031567.html?hilit=wheel%20hum#p6031567. A member wrote a HowTo (see the FAQ) on how to replace it.

The second issue, was recently discussed. Per search: post6680267.html?hilit=seat%20off#p6680267

Please do some searching in the future :).

I apoligize....I should have mentioned that I did change the left wheel hub due to failure. This sounds more like it is coming from the center of the hood.

Is it possible to get a video? It could be literally anything...unfortunately the details are limited other than it being somewhat speed dependent.

Also, as I let off the gas you can hear the sound, but as the vehicle slows it goes away.

Any videos? Does it happen in park with someone revving the motor?
