Had the same problem with my 06, it's the belt tensioner pulley. I put some grease on it, went away for a while, but came back. Had dealership change it out. Traded this POS in this weekend. I will never buy one of these cars again. Every single problem on this forum I had with this car

It does sound like one of the accessory bearings.

This is why (and has been discussed at great length under the Genesis forum) Hyundai is going to have to get their dealers in line if they are going to be successful with the Genesis and Equus. My Father owned an Excel in mid to late 80's and I had 2 Sonatas (one totaled). The last one I forced Hyundai to take back as a lemon for full costs in 1998. I swore I would never own another Hyundai also due to dealer in Dothan, Alabama.
 
Hyundai has come a LONG WAYsince then (I LOVE my Azera!), but their dealers have a TREMENDOUS WAY TO GO (of course, there are exceptions )

Engine whine noise by diesel1953

I have the same whine. When I took off the belt it went away. I checked the idlers and alt bearing and they all seamed to be ok. Sounds like finnwolf found the problem. Was it taken care of under warranty? We like the car and our dealer has been very good so far.

Wow- Mine is doing the same thing, for about a month now. It sounds more like a growling noise, but is constant with the ngine running and louder when accelerating, and no difference between being in gear or neutral / park. I am going to the dealer here in LA next week to have it looked at. I'll let you know what happens.

BELT IDLER PULLEY by espo35

Sounds like the fanbelt idler pulley- warrantied for 5 years or 60,000 miles. Piece of cake to change- your dealer should stock them.

Just spoke with the dealer service rep- He knew what I was talking about soon as I mentioned it, and said the whine or whirring noise was from the belt tensioner pulley.
Taking it there tomorrow for that and the dash- The burst panel on top of the dash that covers the passenger airbag module is separating along the seam. Service rep told me they will order and install a new dashboard.

The dealers and service managers are trained by Hyundai and respond to their experiences with Hyundai HQ. I have used two dealers and both have been excellent. It was the Hyundai district parts and service managers who denied on the problems.
    Dealers are ecstatic when they can do warranty work on a car. Why wouldn't they be? More money for them. However, they know they have to get Hyundai to OK the work or they won't get paid.
    Bottom line. If dealer SM does not acknowledge the problem, immediately call Hyundai's Consumer Affairs and open a case. Get the case number. Also, tell dealer SM that you want an appointment to see the district parts and service manager from Hyundai. He/she may deny it, but maybe not. I got two sets of front struts free this way. Unfortunately, they didn't help the problem.
    What is going to kill Hyundai as a luxury brand is too many niggling problems with their cars that cannot be fixed. People who buy M-B, BMW, Lexus, etc. may be willing to accept some things because of the prestige, but Hyundai has no prestige.
