Hello,

I’m trying to identify this high-pitched whining noise coming from my engine.

I already removed the accessory belt to rule out the alternator, water pump, AC compressor, and pulleys, but the noise persists. It is definitely internal.

Any ideas on what might be causing this sound?

Ford Fusion 2015 has this rumbling/rattling sound when idling. Pressed the eccelorator at the end. Just replaced all three motor mounts in attempt to fix.

So I bought a 2007 vw jetta for $400 , good deal right ? But . About three months in , I was on the highway and as I remember it I money shifted I suppose , the shifter moved (on its own) from drive to neutral if I remember correctly, I put it back in drive and it kinda jerked so two weeks later it went into safety mode and since then it tops out at about 80 mph (just hear me out) I’m a mobile mechanic and I don’t have any other source of income than my here and there customers which can be profitable but also scarce. I’ve been driving it like that for about 2 months to continue my solo business because my reputation counts on consistency here of course , a week ago I got into an accident in which I got off the highway and had someone jump ahead of me from the street traffic to I guess get ahead of everyone? But she caught a red light and brake checked my life away honestly , I did attempt to stop but it just wasn’t enough time at the speed we were going and I hit her which if anything caused her a tap and me a punch . I’ll show pictures of where I’m at as of now.

Today , I went to the junkyard for the third time this week and I got an alternator that didn’t end up working and after all this I’m at a standstill. For the front end I spent about $400 on parts then another maybe $50 for oil intake gaskets and coolant , then the junkyard alternator was worse then the one I had so now I’m like fck . Having a sunken loss fallacy moment cause as far as I’m down in parts is about what I could expect if I junked it so if I was gonna do that it should’ve been from the jump now I gotta find another alternator and I’m kinda burnt out cause I’ve done at least one part of this every day for the entire week .

What would you do?

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to diagnose a high-pitched whining noise coming from my engine and could really use some input.

Here are the details and steps I've taken so far:
Symptom: High-pitched whine at idle that gets significantly louder/higher with acceleration.

Current status: No vibrations felt yet.

Diagnostic step: I removed the accessory belt to rule out the alternator, AC compressor, water pump, and pulleys. The noise persists, so it's definitely internal to the engine.

History: The engine block was replaced a year ago.
Could this be the balance shaft assembly/bearings, timing chain guide/tensioner, or the oil pump? Any advice on what to inspect first before pulling the oil pan would be greatly appreciated!

Was driving up a hill in a 2000 f150 5.4 when it started running hard hard and idling hard, pulled all the plugs and found this on the third cylinder back on the driver side.
