    I will pay attention a bit more to this, but thinking back it seems I do from time to time. I know we have some normal, hard shifting and never really thought about it much.

    No connection.

    Pop the bonnet and twist the rubber bumpers out a turn or two to get rid of the chirping.

    Send your ABS controller and $85 to the guy in Virginia to get rid of the ABS light.

    Did you try this? I had this problem years ago, and had forgotten all about it until I read this post. This is all it was.

    Does the noise go away when you release the brake & put it in neutral?

    Yep.... noise goes away when I release the brake. Not there any other time. Prolly just one of those things, she is getting a bit old. Running great though..... gas mileage is decent, no been over heating....at all.

    Yeah.... prolly just me.

    NO, not just you. Your cicada description kinda adds to the description in my mind as a "whirring", though whirring was never completely accurate as a description IMO. If that sounds familiar, I've noticed & suffered with it for years...

    We should start a 12 step program, for the benefit of the forum...






































    But I am serious about your description adding another element to my description of "the noise"...
