Symptoms:
There is a faint but definitely noticable high frequency "buzz" sound coming *seemingly* from somewhere in the vacinity of between the passenger side door handle and B pillar. Very insect like frequency sound.
It appears most strongly right at 3500 to 4500 rpm while accelerating. Cruising below that, no noise. Accelerating beyond 4500, drowned out by engine / exhaust.
Revving in neutral can also reproduce it but not as distinctly. Also if I guide the passenger tires over the raised reflective lane divider things, the high frequency bumping will also produce it.
My gut tells me it's plastic, like loose trim. But I've checked and everything seems completely tight over there.
It's hard to get a perfect fix on it while driving. I probably need a passenger to do it.
It's right on the line of too minor to care about, but the car is otherwise so tight and free of usual car "noises" that it kind of stands out. I'm also a spaz about these things.
Besides just keeping the radio up, ideas? Any known bits over there known to loosen?
I know that vibrations can also start in other places and come out as noise far away, but for now I'm focusing on where I can hear it.
Obrigado
