What is this secondary winning noise coming from my engine bay?

Asked by Robert May 09, 2020 at 07:54 AM about the 2007 INFINITI G35 x Sedan AWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Hello, for about 2 weeks now I've been hearing a loud winning noise (similar
to the sound of a supercharger) coming from my engine bay. The sound
fluctuates, growing louder, the faster the car goes. Therefore, the car can be
coasting with no throttle applied and I can still hear the secondary noise. I
thought at first it was my air filters (I have a Stillen Gen 2 long cold air intake
as well as a Stillen Cat Back exhaust). But last week I cleaned and
recharged the filters and had a tune up done. I don't think its the power
steering pump because when I turn the wheel, it has no connection with the
sound I'm hearing. I'm thinking it may be the belts or something in that
region. I also have 216K on the Ol' Girl, but she shows no sign of fatigue, lol!
Love ma G! Can someone please help us?

Ed92626 Thank you for that good advice. It’s been over 100K miles since I had the belt changed so I’m sure it’s due. I’m going to take a closer look at it.
