- Noise is very noticeable on startup. It is not there when turning over, but the second the engine ignition, the noise starts.
- Sitting in park, and fluctuation the throttle changes the level and pitch (not consistently) of the noise.
- Cruising at 50, and manually controlling gears makes it very easy to reproduce
- It is very easy to hear the noise when shifting into 5th gear from 4th.
- The noise is almost gone when in gears 1-4.
So... I am not sure what to make of this. I swear it sounds electronic, and I think it is voltage related. Which is why pressing the throttle changes the noise.
The good news, my iPhone picked up the noise. Please someone tell me you can hear it!

Hey man, I can hear it! Check this out, I ran both files through a spectral analyzer. See that horizontal line at about 9-10khz? It begins a little after half-way in Memo and is there all the way through Memo2. Annoying! I also could not hear it on my Macbook, but heard it on the iPhone!
