| No it don't,it sounds like it is coming from the wheels or the front wheel drive.The car was sitting for three years. | |

| wheel bearing or rusty rotors then.. try driving it around a few times to knock the rust off the rotors.. it might be so bad that it needs a full brake job.. | |

| I have been driving it for some time,and the brakes seen to be good.How about the front end drive?Does it have any kind of oil or how does it work? | |

| what does this noise sound like exactly.. compair it to a normal every day sound.. grinding, sqealing, sqeaking, gurgling, etc... it could be the power steering pump if it changes as your turning. it could be the rack and pinion. you could just be out of power steering fluid and your burning up your pump.. to many variables without knowing exactly were its coming from.. | |

| It sound like the tires are singing.It is a roaring sound.I checked the muffler,tailpipe and converter.They are not leaking. | |

| A constant and continues moaning/roaring sound drive line related.
Question
Does the tone change as you speed up?
Does it disappear when the car is Stopped?
I'm thinking is might be a wheel bearing...
Does it sound different on turns as apposed to driving in a straight line? | |
