Replying to: whoosierdaddy (Apr 25, 2009 8:45 pm) I would hate to tell you all, but it's not just the honda's. Two years ago, I bought a 2007 Hyundai Elantra. I have heard the noise since I bought it. I thought it had to do with the shift-tronic transmission, but since I know other people now who have the shift-tronics and theirs doesn't do it, I know that it is not an issue. My humming comes right after 35mph, and it is only if you are not pushing on the gas pedal any harder, or it you don't let off. You have to be going at the steady pace. I took it to the dealership for that among a few other problems (one of which is a clicking in the steering column) and they "fixed" the problems. Well, driving out of the dealership I got the click and wanted to see if I had the humming on the way home before I called them. I did... I'm frustrated. I have a mechanic come into my work and tell me it could be a bearing, but who knows? They'll get my car back for repair for both issues. I guess the reason I am posting is because I want you to know that it is not just honda and I guess to realize that I'm not the only one... it's not just my car. GOOD LUCK TO ALL with this problem. It seems we're all in for the long haul on it!

#291 of 293 Droning and Humming Road Trip Ody 06 by goldengal Aug 05, 2009 (5:15 pm)
Ody 06 with 55,000 and a new steering pump (so I know it is not that awful noise) But, I have all the symptoms of the hum and drone! I don't know what to have them look for when I go to back to Honda Service. Do I go in and ask them to look at the A-pipe, motor mounts,wheel bearings or transmission (torque converter). I am facing a drive from St. Paul to Portland, Oregon in three weeks and need to know if we can safely make it. Can one drive with bad A-pipe, motor mounts, or wheel bearings? If it is the transmission then that will be a different decision. Any advice is appreciated. Replies to this message: mooger1 (Aug 10, 2009 3:53 am) ee4life (Aug 10, 2009 9:59 am)

Replying to: goldengal (Aug 05, 2009 5:15 pm) If it's the A pipe mounts you'll have no problem. If it's the wheel bearings you could have a problem. Here's what i did . drive the van down a straight road around 50 miles an hour.Turn the van motor off, it won't hurt anything, if the noise is still there then you know it can't be in the engine or tranmission because they are off. be careful and make sure you are on a straight road.( have someone from the garage with you so they can here the noise). Then we put the van on a hoist and spun the wheels with our hand and heard the grinding sound of a wheel bearing. Both front wheel bearing were replaced and the noise is gone. good luck Replies to this message: ee4life (Aug 10, 2009 9:59 am)

Replying to: mooger1 (Aug 10, 2009 3:53 am) I would not diagnose it that way, due to safety.   Diagnose wheel bearings per the TSB or by checking for excessive wheel bearing play (trying to rock the front wheels up and down/side to side), while the Ody is on a lift.   TSB 06-018 Bearing Noise From the Front Wheels Applies To: 2005 Odyssey – ALL 2006 Odyssey – 5FNRL3...6B000001 thru 5FNRL3...6B012830 2006 Odyssey – 5FNRL3...6B400001 thru 5FNRL3...6B403543 http://www.in.honda.com/Rjanisis/pubs/SB/A06-018.PDF
