My 97 XJ Country (4x4 auto) developed a buzzy frontend sound about a week ago.
When it happens:
-When I press the gas pedal
-In drive or in park
-Even in neutral
-Hot or cold
Sound quality:
-Buzzy and nasal and sorta whiny
-Within the register of a typical man's voice (I can kinda plug my nose and make a nyeeeehhhhhh sound and it's pretty close)
-The pitch of the sound tracks the RPMs exactly, including rising with acceleration, falling with deceleration, and jumping with shifts
Where:
-It's coming from the engine bay
-Seems like it's near the block
So what's going on??
