Problem started in the past month (2/2007). The noise only occurs at high rpms (> 3500). I had replaced the tires recently, but sure the problem was occurring before that. My dealer tells me that the vehicle is working properly (so the noise is ok?) and that it's either coming from the new tires or the ESP/ABS/Traction Control Module. Are these real possibilities? I have disengaged the ESP on the dash, but still hear the same noise. I test drove a 2007, but didn't hear the noise. :) I'm taking my car to another dealer for a 2nd opinion. I use high octane fuel periodically to clean the injectors, and use regular the rest of the time. I notice the problem regardless of fuel type. Any suggestions?

Could be a belt, or something on the tire.

Please explain the noise in more detail. Try to follow the sound it could be from your speakers even when the audio is off.The ticking noise from the speakers is a known problem but without a solution till now.Another you need to do is to reprogram the ECU with the latest software as it takes care of most niggles. Another possibility is a stuck flap in the A/C climate housing.
