Buzzing sound (like a dryer buzzer)

Asked by bbk Nov 05, 2009 at 12:59 PM about the 2004 Toyota Camry Solara SE Sport

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I am noticing a buzzing sound coming from outside the car at random times: acceleration, slowing down, rolling idle.... I cannot generate the sound adhoc. It sounds pretty close to a cloths dryer buzzer. It sounds like a relay toggling, but I am not sure. It does not affect the operation of the vehicle at all.

Anyone is familiar with that?

IF the noise is outside my guess would be a cataltic converter heat shield I have heard them make all sorts of unusual sounds. GL
