qashqai humming noise at 110km

scuby

Just wondering has anyone come across similar issue.

Have a 2012 diesel qashqai, when driving at 108/110km a humming noise starts, lasts just under half a second, and happens every second... weird, and only when at that speed

My 2010 qashqai diesel kinda does the same around that speed and the passenger seat starts wobbling if there's no one sitting in it. Must be the mechanical resonance of the car at that speed

Does the same thing happen no matter what gear your in once the speed reaches 108/110? Is there any vibration in the steering wheel when it hits this speed?

scuby

No vibrations or rattles, same in 5/6th gear ( will double check though)

If it's humming along, you might have to teach it the right words....

Sound is there when in 5/6th gear, also when out of gear.
Not sure if sound is from wind deflectors or roof rails, but only happens at 108/110km

Probably unrelated... but the oh' s car had a high pitch whine at a specific rev in 5th gear.

Most ppl couldn't hear it, but an oil gearbox change fixed it.

As for a humm... it could be tyres or just wind resistance.

Squeaks rattles and hums can be hard to identify

Wheel bearing? Probably too new of a car.

Sounds like a wheel bearing, had similar noise at speed
