What Is This Ringing?

Does anyone know what this ringing noise might be or has experienced it themselves?

 

What you are listening to in the sound clip below is the truck cruising at 40mph and going over some bumps. I lightly press the accelerator pedal around the 2s mark and lift off around the 8s mark. Coincidentally, you can hear a metallic ringing at 2s mark that ends at 8s mark. It usually starts with a squeal and turns into a ringing. I can get it to happen repeatedly. It only happens while cruising and application of light throttle. Doesn’t happen with heavy throttle.

 

I plan to show it to service on my next oil change. Appreciate any input.

What ringing????  I here a little thumping but no "ringing".  What's your definition of ringing?

I should probably have mentioned it's more discernible on headphones. It's not louder than the road noise but it's there starting at the 2s mark. In the recording, it almost sounds like the noise crickets make. In the truck however, it sounds more like ringing. Hope this helps identify it.

I unfortunately did read that whole thread. I don't believe it's related to what i'm hearing. There was a guy (forgot his name) who provided a recording of the jingle and i confirmed it's not what i'm hearing on mine. The conditions that cause mine to happen is different too.

Can't hear anything except road noise. Even with headphones.

That's 0 for 3. Maybe i am indeed going crazy. ?. Thanks for giving it a shot though.

A co-worker of mine who can hear it pointed out something to me that i hadn't thought of. He said the ringing is fairly high frequency and that some people can't hear that high. I obviously don't mean any disrespect by that. Will definitely need to keep that in mind when i play it for the techs. Thanks to everyone who gave it a shot.

Crickets chirp frequency is a wide range of 2KHz to 8KHz from a quick google search. Doing some sound analysis on the recording, as far as i can tell, the ringing is around 9KHz. I'm curious if you were able to hear any ringing at all in the recording. Try listening above the road noise, if that makes sense. 

 

BTW, this is not meant to be a hearing competency test, lol. I'm just trying to figure out where this sound is coming from.

Alright folks, one last attempt. This time around, I recorded it with the mic outside the truck which I think is clearer. Previous recording was done from inside the cabin. As before, it's more discernible with headphones. Please give it a listen if you can. I appreciate any input. Thanks.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      Because that is IDIOTIC, much like this question. They've already been forced to do it by past administrations - why would you roll that back when it's a GOOD thing?  WHO IS ARGUING FOR LOWER MILEAGE???? 😂  NOBODY IS!!   I'm certainly not! What I want is RELIABLE vehicles again that are worth the price paid!    I don't get your logic here ...   In 2003 I paid $2,200 for our '86 Grand Marquis. It's STILL running and I've never been inside the engine, aside for the timing cover since it was leaking, so I threw a new timing set in since that makes sense. Transmission is ORIGINAL. Electric pump in the gas tank is ORIGINAL. Rear end is ORIGINAL. I'd have to hit my head REAL hard to want to pay $60k or more for a car that still can't come close to the comfort, seating and storage space, or reliability of this one. Nothing is even in the ball park! Hundreds of thousands of brands and models have been built and sent to the crusher while this one keeps on going!   https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   I've got a whole fleet of cars, motorcycles, and a truck close to this age for summer and winter. No one could pay me enough to buy anything built this century. I have zero use for any it.

      Since I'm the one who has to fix them when they break, I'll take vehicles over 30 years old all day, EVERY day, over ANY modern crap. Have you attempted any repairs on anything built after 2006? It's a friggin nightmare, and gets worse the newer the model year.    If I had the will or desire, I can make any car of any age outside of a Model T (I don't have THAT much will ...) just as powerful, comfortable, and have all the tech the new stuff does, and get pretty close in mileage, too. I prefer SIMPLICITY. The less the vehicle has, the less to fix WHEN it breaks, not IF.   I'm glad you snot-nosed punks don't like them. More for us, plus that keeps the prices from climbing more than they already have.👍

      Bringing this thread back on topic. I just noticed the incredible lack of bright chrome across the entire new lineup. Even the Denali has tinted the brightwork in the grille and has none elsewhere. None of them have chrome bumpers. As far as I can tell there aren't even chrome mirror caps. I'm curious if this also happens out back? Are there no chrome rear bumpers either? This is quite the departure for GMC.
