Hey gang, I think before I mentioned the "angry goose" under my hood.
Just driving around town you don't hear it, but at about 40-45mph there's a very low, quiet sound.
By 50 you can definitely hear it.
At 55 you can hear it over the radio.
At 60 it's getting kind of loud.
I have never gone over 70. lol
The pitch also goes up a little, and a vibration gets more noticeable with speed, but the sound is always very low-frequency. It's like there's a 12" subwoofer under my feet, kind of.
Someone suggested it might be the air intake (which is cracked and I've duct-taped it). To test that theory, when I was on the highway yesterday I removed it and just ran an open throttle body for a few miles... the Angry Goose is still there.
So now I'm kind of at a loss.
* I still have the exhaust leak I need to fix, but that manifests itself as a PFFF PFFF PFFF sound under load... could it also simultaneously make a loud drone/vibration?
* I need to change the tranny fluid... I suspect it's still the original fill (so about 96,500 miles!) and that doesn't make for a happy tranny. Downshifts are a little abrupt sometimes. If it's a tranny issue, mebbe new fluid will help.
Any other ideas? Thoughts? Suggestions?
Thanks in advance!!
