OK, I'll be the customer, you guys are the techs. Of course you can't test drive, so you ask questions. You need to diagnose with questions only. I want you to pinpoint the problem. DONT PISS OFF THE CUSTOMER BY A MIS-DIAGNOSIS! Ready?......................................When I'm driving, theres a noise. Kind of sounds like a humming.

The answer is obvious; there is a cat in your wheel well.

are there any certain times its louder than others?

can you give a general idea where its coming from? front or rear?

does it affect how the car is driving/performing.
