Strange sound front wheel

Own a 2004 TSX 5AT.

When accelerating slowly (rpm between 1500 and 2500), strange sound coming from front right wheel, especially and when wheels are turned or have just been turned and are back in a straight line, like something is rubbing against something. Frequency follows rpm level, not tire rotation and only happens if even the slightest gas pressure is on. As soon as gas pedal is released, noise stops.

Dealer says it's an acoustic phenomemon common to 2004 TSX.
Sounds like b.s. to me.
Any suggestion?

Get a second opinion. Could be a axle issue. How many miles?

Sames like same issue as "Steering Wheel Groan" and another issue i've been posting on "noise coming out of first"

I think we're all hearing the same thing, but describing the timing of when we hear it differently. Where are you? MOst of us that hear it, only hear it when the car is cold. < 55 deg F.

Warmer and cooler days. Been happening in both cases... though haven't seen it during summer yet.

Have you heard it above 10 or 11 degrees (Celsius)?
Warm for you is different than it is for me. (21 is warm)
