I'm getting a fairly noticeable noise from ~1800-2200 RPM under light throttle. I can't replicate in neutral or park and it only occurs under load. It sounds like it's coming from the driver front area but cannot pinpoint it. Audible with windows up or down. Noise is comparable to a whistle or turbo that is spooling from inside the car.

Any thoughts?

Do you have an intake or throttle body spacer? i know i got whistle especially from the throttle body spacer. I have since gotten rid of the throttle body spacer but my K&N intake still whistles

Nope, stock intake and no spacer.

I always had a little whistle with stock setup. Added an AFE stage 2 intake, dramatically increased that sound....love it hahaha

I know the sound you're describing and have it also. Cannot locate it. Driver side. Very faint comes and goes. I've had it since the truck was new.

Not coming from the speakers. I'll try to get an audio clip later today.

It almost sounds like something with the belt, or a pulley, but it's not. Not the AC either.
