Well I have put 600 miles on Blu2 (2005 Outback Ltd 175K). I have found pennies all over the place making rattles Solved that.

 

Upgraded the Stereo to an 09 so i can have Bluetooth.

 

Flushed and replaced the brake pads.

 

Replaced the rear struts, they were giving me whiplash.

 

But one thing i cant find

 

whoo

 

 

whoo

 

 

whoo

 

No rhyme or reason to it. It sounds like it is coming from the back of the car. I cant tell you if it happens when it is warm outside, as it hasnt been warm outside. The only thing I can think of is the EVAP system. No CEL, no performance issues, just a very quiet WHOO that i cant hide with the stereo because i know an owl is mocking me.

Just replaced them. And the car wol hoot when moving and not moving, more so in reverse then forward, more so low speed then high speed ....

 

So you're saying the car will make this noise when it's completely stopped?

Stopped when in park or in gear?

 

When you're driving, will it do it all the time, or just accelerating or decelerating?

my 02 has an eehhh, eehhh, sound. i traced it to the toe-in (i think) adjustment bolts on the rear cross member. they ride in a rubber bushing of some kind. the noise is usually triggered by a up down movement , but fore and aft maybe could cause it too. (it is the bolt on the diagonal brace that goes from the cross member to the hub housing.)

 

just a thought. i don't even know if 05s have a similar setup.

STero off, heck tereo physically removed it makes the noise.

 

I cant really tell its source yet, though i am leaning towards the Power Brake booster. Brakes are fine (i think as this car is still new to me).

 

Otherwise it is the fuel pump, evap system, or owls

No owels once the car has warmed up either. When it is cold, and you shift into neutral the owls silence too when backing out of the driveway. They are also are there in drive.

 

i am leaning towards a vacume source, but not much back there behind me except the EVAP system

Bad Motor and /or Transmission Mounts? ... If they let enough movemento to Rub somewhere, it "could" be the source.

 

I Kindly suggest you to do an inspection of the parts under the Car.

 

Kind Regards.
