drukkosz Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Hello all and Happy New Year. I was sitting in my garage yesterday and all the sudden the 3.6 legacy started making that noise in the rear suspension area. It lasted maybe about a minute.I have not seen or hear anything like that before. car was driven for about 30 minutes 6-7 hours earlier. Anybody has any idea what that is all about? it sounds like something was "charging"? here is a video: https://sendvid.com/hrqm3yjg?secret=4825a676-a470-403e-8813-5ca2450b0527 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enlight Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 A whirring noise might indicate a bad wheel bearing. Handle the spokes of the wheel and try to rock it top-bottom/side-to-side - is there any play? muFreight.co A JDM Container Sharing Service from Japan to NYC Website | Instagram | Email Bessie II's Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ctrain7093 Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Sounded like the Fuel pump? I know during down times it will pressurize the system, at least that is what I have been told Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call me Q Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 From 2019 manual: Noise from under the vehicle NOTE You may hear a noise from under the vehicle approximately 5 to 10 hours after the engine is turned off. However, this does not indicate a malfunction. This noise is caused by the operation of the fuel evaporation leakage checking system and the operation is normal. The noise will stop after approximately 15 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hkshooter Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 A whirring noise might indicate a bad wheel bearing. Handle the spokes of the wheel and try to rock it top-bottom/side-to-side - is there any play? Must be one badass wheel bearing that can make noise sitting in the garage. The issue has been asked a thousand times if it's been asked once. Answered above by ammcinnis. Happy New Year to you also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
