During acceleration, the car lets out a moan that gets louder the fast you go but it's also heard as I take my foot off the gas, applying no brakes, and the moan goes down as the car comes to a stop. Turning does not make the noise louder and it does not pull left or right. It runs quite well and accelerates with power just like it did before but with a moaning that goes with it. Again, its heard when I accelerate to 40+MPH and then starts to go down when I just slow down without braking.
Just days before, I went through a puddle where the Service engine soon light came on with the ABS light. Note: The brake light never came on during this time. The code that came out was a B0363. The lights go away after the engine turns off and restarts. The light returned after the car was dry and again off after a restart. I was able to wipe the code away and it has not returned since then, now going on for four days.
Could some part have taken on water?
I am very weary of the sounds my car has been making since I bought it brand new.
Could the compressor, noise I have been hearing for a while (2+years, sounds like something rattling) when turning on heat or A/C that I distinctly hear go on/off when I turn that on, be making this moaning as it starts to malfunction?
Let me know what else I can share.
I wanted to add that the moaning sound is a deep moaning. Definitely not a whining sound. FWIW.
