Sometimes when I press on the gas pedal, my Audi emits a loud, high-pitched whining noise. It only happens when I accelerate and seems to be getting worse. Any idea what could be causing this? Is it dangerous?
ReplyThe most likely cause of this noise is a failing belt or pulley. The noise is caused by friction as the belt slips and can be dangerous if left unaddressed. Take your car to a mechanic to have the belt and pulley checked and replaced if necessary.
It is possible that the noise is coming from a damaged clutch or transmission component. This can be caused by aggressive driving or regular wear and tear. I would recommend taking your Audi to a trusted mechanic for a diagnosis and potential repairs before the issue worsens.
Check your power steering fluid levels and make sure they are filled to the recommended level. Low fluid can cause the power steering system to overwork and create a whining noise. If the fluid levels are low, top them up and see if the noise improves.
