Prius (2010-12) :: Rear Passenger Wheel Squealing Noise Proportional To Speed


Sep 11, 2015

Is it my wheel bearing, rotors or brake pads?

How do I describe it... well it has this squealing noise and it's proportional to my speed.

Heard this while I had my windows rolled down.

Dodge :: 2008 - Rear Passenger Wheel Squealing When Brakes Applied

I have been doing my own brakes for years. I have had some that were not easy to keep from squealing but this one has me wanting to get rid of the car. We have a 2008 Dodge Magnum R/T package. Roughly 38K miles on the car. When the car reached around 10K miles the rear passenger wheel would squeal when you applied the brake. Rotor surface was smooth as glass. I took off the rear rotors only and had them turned. Problem went away for about 5K miles. Then the fronts started squealing.

I replaced the fronts because hte factory did not leave any material to be turned and noted that Dodge glued the pads to the calipers like they would never need to come off. Problem went away for a little while. Then it came back with a vengeance. I replaced the pad material on the fronts with ThermoQuiet pads from Raybestos. Problem is coming back again and now I cannot tell which end of the car it is even coming from because it it so loud. My wife drives this car very carefully. My thought is she is polishing the rotors too smooth and this is our source of noise.

We are at the point of squealing again and I am at my wits end with this. If I light foot it, no noise. If I stop like I think it should be stopped, not killing it, the noise is there. If I stop very quickly about 3 to 5 times in a row the noise is gone for a little while until the pads cool and then it is back even if I am on the same journey.

Passat (B6) :: Under-carriage Whirring Noise Exactly Proportional To Speed

I'm bringing my 6MT 2.0T in tomorrow, for 10K service, installation of the Euro-cupholder and to have them investigate a sound I first noticed last week. For lack of a better description, it's a "whirring" noise that is exactly proportional to speed (higher pitched at higher speeds). I'm guessing that it's either related to the clutch or the drive shaft.

I can't hear it well with the windows open. It seems to emanate from under the stick-shift. It is audible either in gear or not. (And it seems to be getting slightly worse each day).....

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Ticking Sound Coming From Under Hood Proportional To Engine Speed

2011 Elantra GL.

Recently, we noticed a ticking sound coming from under the hood (the rate of "ticking" was proportional to the engine speed). We took the vehicle in to the local Hyundai dealership and didn't hear anything from them until 6 hours later. The news was interesting; they were going to perform a full engine replacement after consulting with Hyundai Canada. In my experience, a resolution of this large of a magnitude usually takes weeks of kicking and screaming for any large corporation to comply, however it seems like a pretty hasty conclusion, indicating to me that Hyundai might be already aware of such an issue...

So here is my question. We requested photos from the dealership, and they were able to send two pictures of one of the camshafts (not sure if it's the intake or exhaust cams), but the only thing that I could notice was some slight abrasion/wear; certainly not enough for me to ever come to the conclusion that a full engine swap was necessary. I've attached the pictures.

Subaru - Legacy :: Whining Noise Directly Proportional To Road Speed When Drive

I have a 1999 Subaru Legacy 2.5 GT and I get a whining noise that is directly proportional to road speed when I drive. The noise is ONLY heard when the car is moving and your foot is on the gas. The second you lift your foot to coast the whining stops. If you are stopped, no whine. If you change gears, the frequency of the whine doesn't change. Turning the wheel left/right doesn't change anything. If it sounds like anything I've heard, it sounds like a dry differential. I've checked the front diff fluid level (the whine comes from the front) and the fluid level is full.

Prius (2010-12) :: Rattling Noise In The Rear Increase With Speed

Once in awhile, as in maybe once a month or every few thousand miles, I hear a rattling noise in the rear below the car. It is very audible and everyone in the car notice it.

This happen only when I have been in traffic for awhile during which:

1) when battery is running really low from moving at low speed

2) After which the engine is turned on to charge the battery

3) moving low speed with the engine running.

The vibrating noise increases as my speed increase, getting more audible and vibrating faster. After a certain point (maybe 30 mph) the noise stopped.

Prius (2010-12) :: Creaking Noise Coming From The Passenger Side Rear

I seem to be getting a creaking noise (the same sound you get when you lean on the armrest) coming from the passenger side rear. It sounds like it is coming from the hatch, but I can't quite narrow it down. The creaking noise appears when I drive slowly over bumps.

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Squealing Noise From Front Driver Side Wheel Area

About 6 weeks ago I noticed a noise coming from the front driver side wheel area. We had just gotten the tire rotated and once at freeway speed it was like a squealing noise, just like when you have worn brakes. Since then the squealing noise is gone and now it's a faint (hard to describe over text) "whomp whomp" noise as if I have off-road tires. I notice it more on freeways I supposed because it's a smoother straighter surface. On a particular right bending street by our house it's louder. What it might be? Car has 36k miles.

Prius (2010-12) :: Road / Wind Noise Coming From The Rear Passenger Area

I've owned a 2012 Prius Two for less than a month now, and today while driving home I noticed what sounds like road/wind noise coming from the rear passenger side area. Googling about this revealed information about the battery fan. However, I'm unsure if what I'm hearing is the battery fan or road/wind noise that I just haven't heard before.

Here's information regarding the conditions I was driving in:

- 84 degrees outside temperature

- car had been sitting in an open-air parking lot for about 2 hours

- no tint, no windows cracked for hot air release

- upon returning to the car I turned on the AC to 68, set at mid range speed

- was driving on the interstate doing some stop-and-go, but mostly 50-plus MPH

- windows rolled up completely, no doors ajar

- it sounded like air rushing by

- could not hear anything coming from the left rear side, but my left ear is partially blocked by the headrest, so...

- sound would decrease in volume if car slowed down

- sound would increase in volume as car got faster, but would eventually level out it seemed

- sound would completely go away at speeds below 20ish mph

- sound would not change based on level of AC, whether on, low, high or off

- checked battery vent for obstructions/debris, saw nothing, and was cool to the touch

- car has about 28k miles on it, replaced rear tires yesterday but all bolts, caps, etc. are securely in place

Prius (2004-09) :: 2007 - Whining Noise From Engine Compartment (Proportional To Acceleration)

I need to diagnose an issue I've had with my 2007 Prius with 79,000 miles on it. Several months ago I noticed a distinctive whining/humming noise coming somewhere from the engine compartment of the car while driving. The noise may be present at lower speeds, but the volume of the noise appears to increase proportionately with my acceleration and as such is most noticeable at highway speeds of 50 - 70 miles per hour. As I accelerate faster, the noise level seems to increase. If I take my foot off the gas and coast, decreasing speed, the whining noise gets lower in volume. I believe I first noticed this noise about 6 months ago, but wasn't more proactive about it like I normally would be because at first the noise didn't seem overly loud and my extended warranty unfortunately was up once I hit 77,000 miles. Now 6 months after I first noticed the noise, I believe it's definitely louder than it was when I first heard it, so much so that I can pick it out over the radio being on at a decent volume.

After checking some forums I thought the culprit might be a wheel bearing. I took it into a local Midas shop at they informed me that my passenger-side front wheel bearing was actually breaking apart in pieces. Obviously I had that wheel bearing replaced but I was also hoping this was the source of the whining noise. Unfortunately that wasn't the case as driving it home the noise was still present. They also said the tires were not balanced properly (from my Toyota Dealership no less when I had them install new tires) so I had the tires rebalanced as well. They did take the car for a test drive but probably stop looking for issues with the car as soon as they saw the wheel bearing in that condition. Also that shop does not specialize in Prius' or hybrids so they might not be able to notice the noise that shouldn't be there like I can.

Other than wheel bearings, where this noise could be coming from. Some posts on here possibly pointed to the ICE water pump or transaxle fluid (which as far as I know has never been replaced since I bought the car new).

Accent LC (2000-05) :: Clicking Sound Proportional To Speed

Have replaced BOTH half axles. Clicking sound present when driving - does NOT change when turning right or left. Seems slightly affected by acceleration/deceleration - makes clicking slightly louder/quieter. Clicking is DIRECTLY proportional to speed - slows down until car stops. Transmission works fine, fluid level is correct. New trans fluid and filter. What the heck could this be? Wheel bearings seem solid - jack up car and try to wiggle wheel - solid as a rock both right and left sides. WHAT ELSE COULD THIS BE???

Prius (2010-12) :: 2013 - Squealing / Rattling Noise During Acceleration

2013 Prius 3 making a squealing or rattling noise when accelerating after car is warmed up. It only does it when the car is up to temperature and when you accelerate slightly harder, like going up a hill or something. It sounds like a pulley or something squealing. It has been to the dealer and of course they couldn't duplicate the noise or see anything wrong. Not to sound funny, but it actually sounds like a hamster running on a wheel. It is very annoying. It is not a constant noise, it only happens under load. It gets louder when the ac is on as well. If you let off the accelerator when it starts the noise goes away. I don't know of it matters but our car has the forged 17" wheels on it from the factory, and the car has 8600 miles on it.

Prius (2010-12) :: Squealing Noise When Lifting Off Brake Pedal?

I recently purchased a new (to me) 2010 prius and I've been noticing that sometimes, but not always, I hear a fairly loud noise when lifting my foot off the brake pedal. It sounds like a squeak or squeal, and I want to say I can almost feel a tiny bit of resistance in the pedal when it happens though that could be in my head. The noise does NOT occur when pushing down on the pedal (only when lifting), and it seems to only occur when the car is stopped.

Prius (2010-12) :: Horrendous Squealing / Scraping Noise When Started Moving?

Our Prius is only a year old with less than 9,000 miles. Everything has been fine with it and then yesterday I took it out of the garage and started to drive and there was the most horrendous grinding/squealing/scraping noise as I started moving from the front passenger side (UK passenger, so left looking out).

I stopped the car and had a look, as at first I thought I was dragging something, but nothing to be seen. Checked the parking brake was definitely not engaged. I then thought perhaps something is caught in the brake pads and it will go in a bit, however even hard braking didn't seem to change the noise at all.

Carried on (I was going about 7 miles), and as I drove it would gradually get quieter, and then get louder again, with the occasional "clang" sound almost like a spring under tension suddenly moving.

Towards the end of the journey it had started to go quieter again, but with the window down you could still hear constant squeal/grind.

Parked the car, was away for an hour, came back and set off home and the noise was totally gone. Entirely silent all the way back home! Now I don't know what to do - whether it will come back, or whether I should take it in to garage for them to look (even though it's now not making any noise).

Prius (2010-12) :: Squeak At Speed - Wheel?

Except there is a small problem, a squeak has started that is definitely based on my speed. It seems to go away a little when I turn.

At EV speeds it sounds like the plane wheels from the beginning of "Back in the USSR".
