I love humming noises, especially those coming from my girl's mouth Whoa!! LOL! Actually, I do not like that humming noise, thus I must crank up the stereo. The only way I can see to fix the problem is to rip out the AC and heater.

I heard it as soon as I took mine for a test drive. It's good to know this is common with the TL, because I've never heard anything quite as loud in any other car. I thought the problem might be specific to my car.

I think our TL is pretty quiet after all, but I do hate the sound of the AC. But that happens to almost every car thought...

I think I know what you are talking about.. when the a/c kicks in, the car engages the pancake fans to add additional cooling to counter the work of the compressor.. and those high speed fans make a hum.. nothin you can do.. and I really don't hear it with the car sealed up.
