Weird Noise in Cabin

I have observed some weird noise in the engine bay or inside the cabin.
As i was pulling on my driveway, and turned my wheels into the right side and i heard some kind of buzz kind of noise it happened so randomly that i could not duplicate, nor re-create but it was certainly there, it was happening intermittently and it went away. It was very similar to the side mirror adjusting itself downwards when backing up.

could anybody chime in for any advice?



Thank you

Was it the antilock brake control doing the start up hum?

Was the car just started, and moving slowly?

There's what drr said, and also that might be cavatiation in the power steering pump. Also another thing could be could be the dreaded vacuum vent controls.

When you just turn on the car and getting ready to move, there is a humming sound in the steering wheel. Its not that.
However it is somewhat similar sound, but intermittently. Its like a frog gulping or something. it happens not during the operation of the car, but when it is coming to a stop specifically to my driveway after turning right into the garage... LOL

I have no idea where it is coming from, i tried to video this thing but no luck, its not vibration coming from the steering wheel, sorta of grinding noise............ I know what my dealer is going to say, Can't duplicate the problem and say bye bye with a $100 bill.

Is it possible that i have a vacuum leak?

Should i pursue this sound further with my mechanic or do you guys think that it is okay to neglect....?

I had another small problem where I turn on the recirculation button while driving on the freeway, and it would have a whistling sound. When I turn the recirculation button off on the climate control again, it would go away. Usually this occurs on the freeway. What may be the problem? It is not too big of a deal, but a little annoying at times.

Thanks

This^

I've heard everything from "My power steering is making this...," to "Tire is making a fart noise." They all turned out to be the Fresh Air Vent in need of a lube.
