Yo, this is my first time posting a thread here so imma try not to ramble.. here it goes.. My wife has a 2002 Honda Accord LX Sedan it has 115,000 miles she bought it in "02" from a Honda dealer that they used it as a loaner so it came with 30,000 miles already on it. Our problem is that when we drive it we hear a humming/whinning sound after 20mph. Apon checking online ive changed all that people have suggested, changed wheel bearings, front suspension, new breaks, ive changed all fluids... And after all that i still hear that damn noise could some one please point me into the right direction of what it is. Thank you.

well, does the sound change based on revs or by speed. possible diff bearings, brakes dragging, something rubbing, doubtful but possibly cv/axles?

As Raley mentioned - what about while reving the engine? Try holding the RPM's at 2,500 and listen carfully. If you hear it and it sounds like it is coming from the belt side I would remove the serp belt and check all the pully bearings for play and spin each one and listen to the bearing (h2o pump, alt., A/C, P/S and belt tenssioner pully. You also may want to check the rubber on the harmonic balancer for significant cracks or missing rubber as thay can cause a "weird" sound as you are describing.

Good luck.
